Slow stitching this week...

I finished up the variegated blue embroidered top with some more scrappy strips and today's job is to get it ready for some hand quilting.  

This measures about 23.5 x 13.5
 

Meanwhile, I also finished filling in the background of the Spring Banner, so some decisions need to be made about how to fully finish it.


And the alphabet is stitched on the Rose Garden Mini Sampler, designed by Melisa at PinkernPunkin.  I've just gotten started on the viny border, and I'm looking forward to adding the pretty red and pink roses, too.  


There's plenty to work on for Slow Sunday Stitching,
and I'll be linking up at Kathy's Quilts!

Your embroidered quilt is looking fabulous, Diann. Such beautiful blue fabrics you are working with. It warms my heart to see your Spring Banner; it is adorable as is your Mini Rose Garden sampler. I cannot thank you enough for stitching them. I am looking forward to seeing how you finish your banner. Hugs.

that is a nice blue piece - whenever I see the embroidery you and others do I feel like doing some too and then I think of all the projects I have going on and say no to one more LOL

What a great finish with your blue stitchery! It is better than being part of a larger piece!

Your hands will be very busy stitching on those cuties!

Your frame for your blue embroidery is so pretty! That is going to be really stunning after you quilt it. Enjoy your Mother's Day!

I love how you arranged the pretty blue embroided blocks. Your Spring bunny stitching is adorable. I look forward to seeing the roses in your sampler border.

Benn catching up on your posts this morning, you're busy with sewing and taking some lovely hikes. Every time I look up from my sewing machine, I see your little stitchery and smile. You do lovely work!

Your blue project turned out beautifully! Looks like you had lots of fun things to stitch on Sunday.

The blue embroidered piece turned out so pretty. I look forward to seeing how you finish it. The bunnies would make a cute pillow/bowl filler.
