August Crafts
It is hot summer here. We are not visiting the beach these days - visiting my studio instead. Almost no sewing has taken place though. I made a purse organizer for myself. Almost 3 years after placing the note in my to do journal... Happy I did it.
In the meantime between beach and studio transition I finished the big leaves lace shawl and it only needs some blocking now. It is huge! Not to sure if it is too big, or just perfect... And it is very heavy too - almost 300g. The pink shawl, that was waiting for less than 10 additional meters of yarn is back on the needles now and I am continuing the bind off. It is slow binding as all the stitches are on a yarn and I need to transfer them on the needle first /which I do in groups of 8-12 stitches, bind them off and transfer the next group.../
My latest project is moving slowly /pictured here/... as I decided to finish all my UFOs using any spare minute. So I washed my machine embroidery potholders today! Another year of waiting here /between attaching the binding and the final binding stitch today/.
I am drawing and sketching doll quilt ideas now, not able to choose one of the 3 ideas I like best so far...
