Slow Sunday Stitching

Posted on January 15, 2017 | 7 comments

Today is Slow Stitching Sunday.

Before I sit in my easy chair, I am planning to try a new-to-me recipe.  I am making a No-Knead Crusty White Bread recipe (King Arthur Flour website)  that I pinned to My Pinterest Bread Board.  The dough is in the refrigerator, ready for baking later.

I will also spend some time free motion quilting on Aunt Sukey Spins Off , my January 2017 UFO Goal.

After these activities, I’ll be ready for my easy chair.

I’m still embroidering Aunt Bea’s Parlor, block 4.

Happy Sunday!

Slow Sunday Stitching

Posted on January 8, 2017 | 11 comments

I am making slow progress with the Aunt Bea’s Parlor project.

I finished Block 3.

Today I will begin Block 4.

I am using Sulky’s Sticky Fabri-Solvy Printable sheets to embroider the designs onto the background fabric.

I like that the stabilizer dissolves easily, but I do feel that it is a bit sticky for my needle.

January 2017 UFO Goal

Posted on January 1, 2017 | 25 comments

I have chosen to work on Aunt Sukey Spins Off for my January UFO Goal.

This quilt is already under the needle, and most of the top is quilted.  I need to get the borders quilted, and that will be my focus.

The bonus will be to get the binding on, too, and be finished, but I’ll be pleased to get the quilting accomplished.

Linking up will keep me accountable, focused, and motivated, so I am linking up with Elm Street Quilts – One Monthly Goal.

Another goal this year, is to embroider the blocks for Aunt Bea’s Parlor.

I have two blocks done.  I will be working on this project on Sundays.

May your New Year be filled with blessings and the achievements of your goals!
