I made a few dotty cuffs for some sweet far-away friends.
It was lovely thinking about them with every little wonky stitch.
It was fun to plunge into my collection of fabric scraps, mostly lovely Liberty Tana Lawn.
I really enjoy this kind of hand-stitching. So relaxing. Quite a bit like knitting, actually.
Wouldn't it be nice to embellish the hem of a skirt or coat with this type of appliqué? One day I might even try my hand at creating a more ambitious Alabama Chanin-style garment. But first I have a ton of knitting to catch up on. To my delighted surprise, the Bookhou knits have been selling well, and I need to send more to Arounna. I guess I'm not the only one who feels the need to bundle up. Brrr... it's getting cold around here!
Hope you stay warm, wherever you are.
