I had a productive week of quilting and getting binding sewn on.
Honestly, hand sewing binding is one of my very favorite parts of quilting. I don't mind seeing a pile begin. Our house will be filled with family in another week, followed by our Summer family vacation. These will provide the perfect stitching to enjoy during patio time and on the road traveling.
Hope you too have some happy stitching to keep you busy during these dog days of Summer.

I love to hand bind too! You should spend some of your penny bank money and invest in some Clover clips--check Amazon--they were cheaper buying them in a 100 pack.
ReplyDeleteSo fun - love having projects at the ready for company's visiting. Great job Val!
ReplyDeleteMe too, I need to get a couple saved up for football season, but on the other hand, I need to finish my fair entries for this year.
ReplyDeleteoh wow you have been busy! enjoy your slow teaching on your vaca!
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday
I too love the hand stitching element of quilting. Have a fabulous holiday with your family, lovely Val.
ReplyDeleteI am so much better at hand-stitching binding than by machine. I don't mind it at all either.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoy your hand binding! It seems like such a relaxing, nice thing to do in the evenings. I sure wish I liked it! I'm looking forward to seeing more of those quilts when they are finished :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great pile! I also love hand binding and I like to have binding ready for car rides. Have fun with your binding!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you'll have a few finishes showing up in your future. Enjoy the family time and vacation.
ReplyDeleteI forget how much I like doing some handwork. Enjoying!
ReplyDeleteHave a great time with the family 😘
