Guild 'Sinchies'

Yesterday was the last day The Grand Guild was at the Quilt and Fibre Festival in St. Jacobs.  So glad I remembered to get a photo of our 'sinchie' display.  The guild is full of talented artists so it is a bit disappointing that there wasn't one piece that made me say 'oh, wow'.  There are loads of good pieces though.

    It is always nice to see one's own work on display.
    When you look at quilts at a show, do your have some kind of plan? I mean do you look for quilts that are perfect, or pink, or have a lot of embroidery? Do you look for a quilt you wish you had made, a quilt that has a unique technique, or a quilt with a message...
    When I go to a quilt show, I grade quilts according to how much I would be willing to pay for them, or if I would love to have them in my home, I also look for craftsmanship and innovation.

Slow Stitching Sunday

 How did it get to be December!  I really meant to fill in the big gaps in my November slice!  I still might.  We will see how it goes.  I got a lot of other stitching done in November so I guess that distracted me from this project.  There is only one slice left to stitch on this project and I find myself jumping ahead to next year. I wonder if I want to do another monthly project like this for next year.  I like having a monthly project.  I might consider doing a mixed-media instead of stitching.  Not that I couldn't incorporate some stitching into that though.  I have no clear idea at this point and that's okay.  I have to get through the holidays!   I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/

  I am still working away at attaching my circles to this piece.  I have added some other stitching as well.  I am very keen to add some beading to this one but that must wait.  Beading needs to be the last step.  I don't need the frustration of my threads getting snagged on the beads.   Progress can feel oh so slow.  Especially when it is because I am distracted by other projects!

 I enjoyed stitching my September slice.  I got out my book by Carole Samples Treasury of Crazy Quilt Stithes.  It has wonderful combinations of stitches.  I have had this book for years and never properly used it.  It uses basic stitches in interesting combinations. So, I didn't really learn any new stitches but I did enjoy combining stitches in new ways.  I might find that more helpful in the long wrong.   The weather has still been cooperative for stitching outside.  The week ahead looks good too.  I might get a jump start on my October slice.  It is sad to think about putting away the deck furniture but it can wait at least a week.
