I made progress on my slow stitching project on Thursday. I subbed at a large area high school in the vocal music/strings departments. Many students were out with their teachers for performances. I did have several study halls. I stitched and stitched and stitched basket handles.
Here are a stack of handles and supplies that I put together on Wednesday. I knew I'd have stitching time on Thursday. Below is my view for the day (before the students came to class.) (I don't take photos of students. That's not a good practice.)
Below you can see the finished basket handles on the beautiful grand piano in the room.
The last two periods of the day I moved to the Strings class. Oh the students are very talented! I made two basket handles here.
It's FRIDAY! It's the last day I'm scheduled to sub for the year. Area schools are off from 12/21/24 through 1/6/25. Hopefully the weather will be cooperative enough so that I can longarm a few quilts. We shall see. Stay tuned.

You are tempting me to start a basket project. Those handles would be a very easy transportable project, easier than applique which has lots of pieces and lots of threads. Happy stitching!
You have made a lot of progress on your handles! They are so cute! I hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
Super handles. I admire the way you got them to lay flat and have great variety. Good that you have a break.
