Slow Stitching Progress on Linen & Threads SAL

I made some progress on my Linen & Threads SAL.  Not all the bowlers were here today.  I didn't have too many people to talk to.  I seriously enjoyed a little calm stitching.  It was quite the productive slow-stitching week!  Schools in Ohio are shut down as of 3/14/20 for three weeks.  I hope to be able to use my longarm and get some of the quilts quilted during my time off school.

If you are sick, stay home and manage your symptom.  Wash your hands!


I finished my pre-printed holiday apron that was cross stitch and embroidery.  I posted about it on Friday.


I had a few good finds in the bargain bin at Goodwill.  Below are two COMPLETE projects that appear to never to have been opened for about 50 cents and a new book for 50 cents.  $1 total!


Oh how I love to find stuff like this turned upside down in the bargain bins!  Especially with the floss side to me.


There are some small cross stitch projects in this book.  I may make a special Christmas card for my sister-in-law.


I'm linking up at Kathy's Quilts today for Slow Sunday Stitching.

I forgot to mention how seriously proud I am of my sister-in-law for being FIVE years sober!
