Slow Stitching Progress...

I have been getting my Sue Spargo Bloom hand-stitching done....so I can start something new!
How to you "plow" through a project you are tired of, but want to get it done?
Me? I take short-cuts! Notice along the fabric and ribbon I used decorative stitching done with my sewing machine. I'm also sticking to the creative stitches I know and aren't too detailed.
I only have two blocks after these to finish so for my August OMG I'm exclaiming to all of you is that I'll have all the blocks in this quilt finished and sewn together into a flimsy!! Oh man! Just writing that motivated me to go get the last two pieces prepped for stitching today. I'm off....to start!

  4. I like to mix machine and hand stitching - just a different texture to a piece.

  7. I love the butterflies! Unfortunately, when I get tired of a project it becomes a UFO...I must get tired a lot.
