Slow Stitching Sunday


Today I plan to work on Circle of Jewels. I need to make some half flower rosettes and some half jewels.  This means I am almost finished with the hand stitching part of this quilt. I love my zebra lap desk. It has a nice padded underside so stays almost level on my lap.  That is if a cute little dog or a couple of kittens stay out of the way.


Last Monday I took this photo. I have since finished the bottom row, See there on the right side, 2nd row?  I was unsure what to fill that with so I sent this picture off in an email off to Mickey DePre for her opinion. (After all, it is all her fault that I started this. All she did was post one little picture of her future project and I fell in love and went crazy! Crazy in a good way!!)  She said she planned to fill her sides in with half flowers so I will too.  Then I will machine applique it to a narrow border and add a wider black and white print border like I did with Mae's GFG. I will probably quilt it pretty much the same as her's too.

This isn't a big quilt, it's just the right size to cuddle on the couch with.

What are you stitching today? See great projects at Kathy's Quilt: Slow Sunday Stitching.

I must resist...I must resist...you were tempted and now I am seriously tempted to start this pattern. It's beautiful!

Nice hexagon project. I am tempted to do something with hexagons but deciding what is daunting. There are so many wonderful designs you can do with them.

Just a bit more to do and your piecing will be done! Happy stitching to you!

So pretty and sparkly! I sure hope I don't fall in love with starting another project!

That's one gorgeous quilt in progress! I love EPP and must muster up all the resistance I can! ;-) At least until I finish the MWFG I'm in the middle of, the Texas Star I have a little bit of a start on, and the POTC that I have promised myself will be next. ;-)
