Hand Sewing


This is a Halloween wall pocket that I finished today. It is felted wool and I love the old time Halloween look. The pattern is called "Black Cat" and it was designed by Jan Speed at "A Piece of Work." I also worked on squaring up the half-square triangles that I made earlier. I had to set the timer for 15 minutes to make me do this. It's one task I don't really enjoy. I'm going to have to change my attitude about it if I want quilts that turn out nice. :-)

Hand sewing


I decided since I did finish a UFO/WIP I could start a new project. I wanted something easy and fast. So this is what I'm working on. (In addition to my quilt-along quilt.) I needed a hand sewing project for those times that I needed to put my foot up. I was amazed at how many more hand sewing projects I have in my project boxes. (Yes, that is plural.) Lots of sewing needs to be done!
