Slow Sunday Stitching-20 Sep

I attended the Utah Quilt Fest this
past week where I took a class
in Sashiko stitching.
 
We were given kits with the
traditional indigo blue fabric
and white cotton thread.
 
 
 I will be stitching the Crane
motif. It is a very restful
stitching to do after a crazy week.
 
What are you stitching this Sunday?

Slow Sunday stitching 13 Sep

The weather has cooled off for
the weekend a little, so I decided
to finish up row 39 on my
Trip Around the World project

 
I laid it on the bed to see how it
fit. I need to do a few more rows
all the way around, then I'll
add to just the top and bottom
so it fits.
 
What are you slow stitching today?

On the Needle-4 Sep

This week, I am starting to
organize and begin projects
for Christmas. I am a very
slow beginner knitter, so I
have to start early!
 
My husband is a teacher
and the crossing guard. The
Winter weather can be
nasty sometimes, so I am
knitting him a few hats
for his Christmas.
 
This week, I just started
the Ruben Hat by
Trelly Hernandez.

 
It is a free pattern I found
 
I am knitting it in wool
that is a dark moss green color
I have never done cables
before, so this will be a
learning experience for me.
 
What is On the Needle at your house?
