"SUNNY DAYS" HAND QUILTING, et al

 

Here is my next "Little" to be hand quilted...

I began this years ago...I cannot even recall

exactly how long!!😦😟

I used cut-offs and scraps leftover...

I have begun in the central portion outlining the 

seamlines to begin with...

Using Perle 8 white cotton...

That central portion consists of many of my

favorite scraps sewn in "Chinese Coin" fashion...

And the reverse is a leftover piece of

one of my all-time favorite Japanese

fabrics...i love the facial

expression on these Geisha Girls...

I am only taking one stitch

at a time and turning

my usual quilting (2-3 stitches on needle)

into a "slow stitch quilting" process...

Tom and I, through the years, have been

lucky enough to have been invited to go

sailing with two of our sailboat owner friends.

This piece, by way of that, is a little

memory of those 

younger, enjoyable days on

the ocean with them....

*****************************

This weekend is the "Monza" Grand Prix

Formula One (F1) race--so I

will be able to do some stitching

on this while watching their

coverage...

Hugs from still humid 

and gloomy
