SUNDAY DECK STITCHING

 

Today dawned cool and dry
So,
We took our coffee out on
the deck.
Then...
I continued sewing my 
hexagons together...
I have just 
three more to add and my 
table topper will be finished..
↧↧↧↧
I am doing the easy whip
stitch on these. 
This is my preferred way
of joining hexagons...
Very relaxing sewing...
 
and I  use my little clips
to hold the seams in place.

I am happy that I can
showcase this lovely
bird and flower print
in these larger hexies...
with this surround of 
what's left of my blue 
Roses
*********************

I hope your Sunday is restful
and relaxing...
Hugs, Julierose

  2. Really lovely - and it is cooler here today but still very humid. Overcast as well. Better than 108-111 degrees, that's for sure.

  7. Sounds like a lovely way to spend the morning! Aren't those clips a great idea for this sort of sewing? I can't remember what we did before they were around.

  9. Happy Sunday, Julierose. It sounds like you have had the perfect day sitting on the deck and stitching away. Your sweet tablerunner is tempting me to start one of my own . Thank you for the great tip on using the clips to hold them together. I would have never thought of that. Have a blessed week and happy quilting Hugs.
