End of the Month Already


I finished this last year, including the embroidery.  I simply do not have the manual dexterity to form French or Colonial knots so I used small seed beads to take their place.  All the stitching is back stitch.


I machine pieced and machine quilted it myself and hand sewed the binding to the back.  Not too shabby if I do say so myself!  Made for a one-year old for milk and cookies and that letter to Santa.  There is a pocket under the lined, embroidered pocket.

Still listening to audiobooks from the library.  And I can check them out and return them from home.

Will keep this short for tonight.  Thanks to all who responded last year.  Not much changes from day to day here.  Stay warm and safe!

Distantly blissful hugs,

Sharon (yes, that's me behind the mask)
