I do have forward progress to share, and any forward progress is a good thing!
Here is a reminder of where I was in this quilt-along (I do plan on making a quilt from these stitcheries):
The block is finished and here is how it looks now:
And the next block ready to stitch:
My new progress:
If you need incentive to work on your hand quilting, then consider joining up. Having to show my progress definitely helps to keep me going on a project!
Hand Quilt Along Links
This Hand Quilt Along is an opportunity for hand quilters and piecers to share and motivate one another. We post every three weeks, to show our progress and encourage one another. If you have a hand quilting project and would like to join our group contact Kathy at the link below.
Kathy, Margaret, Deb, Sharon, Karrin, Daisy, and Laura
Have fun and carry on!






The blocks are so cute. There’s a lot of stitching in those blocks. With mostly one stitch and one color I can see how the SAL helps with motivation.

Very simple and very cute, Donna! I only need the motivation because of so many other distractions! 🙂

I love a novel and a soak, but I don’t have that luxury. There is no bathtub in my house. 🙂
