Slow stitching for a Sunday...

This week I finished up the Sew Day Basket design from Melisa at PinkernPunkin Quilting and tucked it into my sewing corner where I keep everything I need for evening hand stitching.

Scissors, thread, pincushions, reading glasses!

In my box of goodies from Nann, there was a stack of cross-stitch charts!  So fun to look through.  You can't tell here, but it's an inch thick!  Of course, I'm excited to try something from one of these charts.  Maybe a Prairie Schooler pumpkin for fall?

Thank you, Nann!

But first, I should probably finish up these sunflowers!

That's what I'll be working on today!

  1. Lots of Sunflower projects going on this week on the blogs I read. Pumpkin season will soon be upon us and you have the perfect pattern to work on. Your SEW cross stitch pillow is a great addition to your hand stitching basket. Gail at the Cozy Quilter

  3. Your little basket is so cute! My more attractive than the little box I use for my essentials. ;) I like your sunflowers, looks like a good stitching day for you. I am determined to get a least a few stitches in on my pumpkin stocking - I'm afraid I'll start it in the wrong place then run out of fabric!

  5. The Sew Day Basket looks so cute in with all of your sewing implements. I have reading glasses all around the house near each of my projects. Your sunflowers are looking very pretty. You have a lot of great projects in your future with all of those patterns. Enjoy your stitching!
