Sewing Day Feb 28th

Belinda at her machine ... tell us what you're thinking at that moment! (this is a private blog so you don't have to monitor anything)

 Elizabeth does some inspiration reading while on a stitching break.

Belinda's a threading pro now! And I  love the new name I learned for the blind hem stitch .... the heartbeat stitch!

Sorry I didn't get any photos of our creations. I took a couple photos later in the day of my solvron-puckered patchwork piece.

Thanks for another fun Odd Tuesday!
