Above right is that side's piece first plan...
nine patches and suffolk puffs..
Now that side has become...
↧↧↧↧
I added little florets all along the
way to fill in those larger spaces and
I have stitched them all down...
And begun my Kantha stitching for quilting on this piece...
I am using light lavender and pale beige threads
to go all along the whole piece...so that they
blend quietly into that background piece...
Here I am set up on my dining table--
which these days has become another
work station for me --using my old sweater
blocking board to protect the table...
.
I love how the Kantha stitches puff up
those vintage yo-yos a bit
for some more
texture on this piece...
This stitching will take a while at the
slow rate I am working--
😪
Well...after all, it is
SLOW STITCHING.
isn't it 😇😉.
And...FYI
Below is a picture of K3N's
most recent prompt for which
I have substituted my
suffolk puffs and little florets...
I love this series of prompts as Kathrine
(at K3N Cloth Tales on Youtube)
always has wonderful explanations
of how and also why she chooses them.
There is always so much information
to take in about stitchery in general...
very inspiring...
I had an enforced break from following
these prompts in her SAL
when I contracted Lyme and
Anaplasma diseases and
went into hospital..
So, I am picking up this project
now that
the leftover symptoms have
mostly disappeared--
but every once in a while .....
like yesterday as an example......
😕😷
they return and I am laid low once again...
Thankfully that recurrence
has gone down in
both frequency and length...

It is one beautiful, warmish day here
at the House on the Hill.
I hope you are enjoying your
Sunday day of rest...
