Fifites Dress No 8 of the Dress Me Up from Bobby Socks Quilts is finished at last, in its fashion Four more to go. I've heard marathon runners talking about hitting a wall and that's how I'm beginning to feel about these embroideries. Each one seems to be taking me longer to complete !
Here in the southern hemishpere it's summer time and holiday time. Most groups take this month off from their regular meetings, and with all the holiday activities as well it's easy for handwork to take a back seat for a while.
But I also finished quilting and binding the floral quilt with cross stitch panels and I am so pleased with it. The colours are among my favourites. Taking a photograph of it lying flat doesn't really do it justice as it drapes beautifully. I used the bamboo batting which is so flexible.
