Hand Stitching

I am a FAST person. I think FAST. I walk FAST. When I have ideas, I want them executed FAST.

Maybe that is why I never really got into hand stitching, as much as I love the look. It's so SLOW.

Most of my work, be it quilts or textile art, is machine done.

I have enrolled in an on-line class given by my Australian friend and textile artist, Dijanne Cevaal. It is all about hand stitching!

Since I will be travelling this summer, I will be able to stitch while away.

Summer is a good time to be SLOW.
