Welcome, ya'll and a very happy Sunday to you!
Have you pulled out your Slow Stitching piece for today?
Kathy at Kathy's Quilts is keeping us motivated with the Slow Stitching link party each Sunday so if you have a chance hop over and visit her and all of the lovely ladies linking up.
My needle and thread will be meandering among the butterflies in my Butterfly Kisses quilt . I shared my finished top on Friday.
I have completed 3 blocks so far.
It takes 2 1/2 hours to quilt one block.
I am quilting 1/4" around the butterflies and then a bit of quilting in the wings. The sashing has a cable design quilted in it.
Well this was a short and sweet visit. Wasn't it? I didn't chat your ears off. 😃

Have a blessed day!

ReplyDeleteYou are so kind, Deb. Thank you so much; I am enjoying working on it. Have a lovely week.
DeleteOMGoodness! That little snippet about your Nanny was priceless! 12:01 Monday and the laundry is started. LOL Breakfast that early?! I don't even think I could digest more than coffee at that hour. That's farmers for you, right? You're making great progress on the butterfly quilt. I'm still plugging away at my QOV quilt top. Designing is a very slow process for me.
ReplyDeleteLol Nanny and Papa were early risers. Dinner was at 10:30 a.m/11. and Supper at 3:00 Lol. I have had a great time working on the butterfly quilt; it has been relaxing. I hope you have a great week working on the QOV top; I know it will be a beautiful and special quilt. Hugs.
DeleteYour butterfly quilt is lovely! I am so inspired by your hand quilting!
ReplyDeleteAaaw thank you so much, dear. The hand quilting is so relaxing to me. Have a blessed week. Hugs.
DeleteYour quilting is wonderful on those pretty butterflies, Melisa! Hope you've had a lovely Sunday!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much, Diann. I am enjoying the quilting so much. I hope I will be able to work on it more later this week. Happy quilting.
DeleteWhat a cute butterfly quilt. Yikes, 2.5 hours per block...you have way more patience than I do. I can't imagine having breakfast at 4:30 in the morning! How about 8:30 or 9. It's great to be retired.
ReplyDeleteAww thank you so much, Bonnie. The quilting is so relaxing to me; the 2 1/2 hours seem to fly by for me. I guess cause I am having so much fun. Lol.Oh yes Breakfast at 9 sounds lovely. I agree retirement is the best!!! Have an awesome week.
DeleteYour butterfly quilt is so nice! Is it all hand quilted? Such beautiful talent! Blessings
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much, Donna. I hand appliqued and machine pieced it, but all of the quilting will be done by hand. I never learned how to machine quilt so that is why it takes me forever to finish a quilt . Lol. but I enjoy it. Hugs.
DeleteSuch a fun project to be stitching on while its Spring. Your butterflies are lovely!
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying every stitch too. Thank you for the sweet visit, Kate. Happy quilting.
DeleteShort and sweet and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou always make my day, sweet Susan. Thank you so much. Hugs.
