stitching i haven t even visited the 30 fabulous links from last week yet sometimes there is just not enough time to do all the fun things we want to do but i always make the time on sundays for a few relaxing moments with my needle and thread we have been enjoying such fabulous fall weather here that it has been hard to stay indoors and sew i did buckle down and get the binding attached on my berenstain bears baby quilt i was so happy i had enough of that great yellow with orange dots binding fabric to get all the way around the quilt i enjoyed some hand stitching time while watching quiltcam this week and got one side of the binding finished it is looking good to hopefully finish the quilt this week what are you hand stitching today an inlinkz link up posted by quilter kathy 13 comments labels binding slow sunday stitching 2017 sunday august 28 2016 slow sunday stitching welcome to the community of slow stitchers where we celebrate the art of creating things with our hands where we connect to our ancestors by using time honoured techniques to make things we could easily buy for a fraction of the cost and where we recognize the value we add to our own lives by engaging in this restorative practice this week i finished machine quilting my ufo of the month and am so happy that i get to hand stitch the binding today binding is one of my favourite things to do and this is one of my favourite places to do it you wouldn t know it looking at this photo but this is right in the heart of the city where i live there is a beautiful river and walking trails and stitching benches well maybe the benches were made for resting but i often use them for stitching did you know there is such a thing as binding needles i did not know that until recently and so of course i bought a package to try them out i will let you know if they are smoother and or faster than using any other regular needle what are you hand stitching today we encourage you to pick up a needle and thread and join us as we make time in our busy lives to rest to breathe and to stitch link up your blog post below and share your hand stitching project with us an inlinkz link up posted by quilter

i have been working on either in my mind or in my hands since november once i got the border problem solved and the quilting started it practically finished itself well not really but it was quite fun and i m so thrilled stay the course it s time to give myself a big pat on the back we all know that it is so much easier to start new things that are fresh and enticing with no challenges or problems to solve but there is such a sense of growth and satisfaction to stay the course to solve the problems that arise to push yourself in new directions and to actually accomplish a huge task today i get to enjoy the wonderful task of finishing a quilt that i started in 2013 isn t that a great striped binding fabric binding a quilt is one of my favourite hand stitching activities so i am in for a very

are making on your projects posted by quilter kathy 24 comments labels binding slow sunday stitching 2016 saturday october 31 2015 october binding blitz october has been a great month for finishing quilts it must be the cooler weather motivating me to snuggle under a quilt to enjoy hand stitching i finished cozy afternoon which was 136 of binding it was a little harder on my hands because of the flange in the binding on the front of the quilt i should have cut the binding strips a bit wider to accommodate the flange but i forgot and had to really pull the binding to cover the stitching line on the back a quick finish was the peaceful country roads quiltalong which was 21 25 square so it only adds 85 to the monthly total but i ll take it then i finished a little hand quilted miniature block called times nine that added 48 to the total and the big finish was easy street a bonnie hunter mystery from 2012 it finished at 88 square which adds 352 to the tally october s total is 621 and adding this number to september s total of 2 832 gives me a total of 3 453 of binding in 2015 so far woohoo ps i hope someone is checking my math linking up to julie s binding blitz posted by quilter kathy 9 comments labels binding sunday october 25 2015 slow sunday stitching welcome to slow sunday stitching at kathy s quilts make yourself a cup of tea or coffee and join us to celebrate the experience of living life more deliberately and slowly i am so happy today to be hand stitching the binding on my october ufo i cut these lime green scraps from the quilt top and backing to make up over 360 of binding it is now attached to the quilt and i m plan to spend the better part of today hand stitching it to the back of the quilt busy brain why do i stitch by hand when i can make a machine finished binding in a fraction of the time for me hand stitching is all about how it makes me feel it forces me to slow down calm down power down it s like yoga stitching it brings me out of my head and into my body into my hands into the enjoyment of this moment i breath deeper and feel the relaxation increase as i take each stitch how are you relaxing with hand stitching today tell us about how you benefit from stitching slowly and link up your blog post below posted by quilter kathy 26 comments labels binding slow sunday stitching 2015 friday october 02 2015 september binding blitz i have been keeping track of the number of inches stitched on quilt bindings this year it s maybe a strange thing to do one of many oddities i enjoy but it s kind of fun to know ever wonder what a pile of 300 of prepared binding looks like now you know this is the binding for the confluence quilt and it used up pieces leftover from the quilt front and the backing so let s see what the numbers are at the end of july my total was 2 286 i didn t do a binding update in august but i did finish an old ufo which adds 258 to the tally and this month i finished my scrap squad quilt adding another
