A Little Bit of This and That

Rise and Shine,  Sunshine! Another glorious day awaits us! 

 

What do you have on the agenda today? Perhaps some sloooow stitching!? ? Grab your needle and thread ! I sure could use some help on "Alabama Beauty". I am as slow as molasses on quilting this beauty. 

As they say though- "Every stitch counts!"

Aren't the old fabrics just yummy?!

 

Summer Checklist  which I shared earlier this summer is nearing a finish. I will add a running stitch in brown floss  1/4 " from the border. 

Excuse me a minute while I do  the   happy dance ! YEEEHAW!

  I stitched at lat 15 minutes everyday this week, and a few  stitches have made their way out of the "Basket of Waiting to Be Finished"   and onto the finishing table!!!! Yahoo! 

The first is "Q" from "  Stitcher's Alphabet" by Brookes Book Publishing. It is a freebie that I stitched in 2020. 

"Berries" is another finish that I made into a pillow. It was one of  mine that I was not satisfied with , but I did want to finish it. 


  

Now onto the plans for the week. 

Hmm.... What Should I do This Week? 
🌞1. Quilt on Scrapberries 
🌞2.Work on Thanksgiving Mason jar
🌞3. Quilt "Alabama Beauty" .
🌞4. Work  on Mini Bouquet Sampler. 
Progress as of June 1, 2024

🌞5.Piece more Potato Chip Blocks- two more blocks are added to the chip stack. 


🌞6. Add binding to Summer Checklist. 
🌞7. Place the Berry Season Quilt in the hoop. Eeeh! I finished the embroidery work!

I will close with a little patriotic quilt stack. Annie and the gang are on top of the stack  in the  Stars, Stripes and Chickens  stitch. 

As always,

Happy Stitching and Quilting, ya'll
