I can't believe another week has gone by already. They are coming around too soon!
I meet up with some ladies once a week to do some stitching and chatting, and of course, we end up doing more chatting than stitching. I haven't been able to make our weekly meet-up for a while now but this week I got there and was able to slip stitch the binding onto the back of one quilt. I haven't done this in ages. I normally machine sew the binding onto the back of the quilt and then fold it over to the front and machine stitch the front. It was nice to be able to sit there and sew without too much concentration and chat as well. We meet in the evening and can bring our sewing machines along if we like, but sometimes after a long day you just want to sit and sew by hand and this provides a perfect forum for just that. So there I was, in good company, sitting, sewing and chatting, a perfect end to a long day!
