A weeks delay for our FWWFs but thank you Cheryll for getting us organised this week. Sadly, having spent the day painting the garden fence all I could manage in the way of stitch was my Stitch Journal. Here is the last week
This week saw the completion of the quilting on Wings and Pretty Things. Look carefully and you might spot + marking the last stitch!
I worked on my Chookshed Challenge this week - a simple project that was done in an evening.
I swapped numbers this month in favour of this simple project as I have secret stitching to do and that is now under way. Also this week I got the handles and bindings ready for my selvedge bag which I hope to complete next week when I get out the sewing machine.
So that is all from me for now. Have a good week.
I love that sweep of running stitch for the painting - a perfect representation!
ReplyDeleteI could not find the last stitch but I was admiring your lovely even hand quilting. You have captured the sweep of a paint brush beautifully. A pretty little lavender bag.
ReplyDeleteI always love your stitchery and this week is just as gorgeous as always. I love the stars (don't what they are but they look like stars to me). The one on the bottom right, did you use the skein you dyed a few weeks ago? The darker blue? It is so cool. Love that. Bravo for a little project finished. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteYour stitch journal is so pretty and you have a finish! Happy stitching!
ReplyDeleteOH! I missed the re-run of FNWF - never mind its FNSI this week anyway...LOL
ReplyDeleteYou stitch journal is very pretty with the blues & yellows. The sweep of running stitch for the painting is very clever...a masterstroke?? perhaps.....LOL... Well done on the quilting - its lovely.
How appropriate to have a sweep of running stitch. It must feel so good to have finished your quilting. No, I couldn’t find the end. I love the simple lavender bag.
ReplyDeletelove this week's stitch journal! such a pretty lavender bag, Well done on completing the quilting on your wings and pretty things quilt. Love the feel of a hand quilted quilt.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to do a quick project now and then, to offset the larger ones. The lavender bag is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteThat’s a sweet little lavender bag. I stayed in Thirsk many years ago at an old mill house for a stitching week course. She had the most beautiful stitched lavender on a fleece blanket (which I bought). My room was decorated with lots of lavender too. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteLovely stitching on your journal, Lin. The lavender bag is so pretty, too. Congratulations on finishing the quilting on Wings and Pretty Things.
ReplyDeleteWell done to finish the quilting. I am enjoying seeing the progress on your stitching journal. Beautiful lavender bag.
ReplyDeleteYour stitching is always a joy to see. What a sweet lavender bag. Does the heat of the bag waft the lavender scent around the room? Or at least as far as your pillow?
ReplyDeleteYour stitch journal is so lovely Lin & your wings & pretty things has turned out stunning. I love the sweet simplicity of the lavender bag. xx
ReplyDeleteLove your Lavendar bag. The flowers are so sweet & dainty. Happy to hear your Wings & Pretty Things is nearing completion. Just the binding to go, sounds like. Yippee! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLoving seeing your lovely stitch journal and all the various stitches. Congratulations on Wings...just lovely. Makes me happy to know there is another out there in the world. Such a sweet lavender bag....love lavender xx
