Stitching, here I come

I have to say I was stitching long before I learned to quilt
It feels good to  add it to my sewing activities again.
Working on the Tammy Bag hop, and We Support You hop has renewed my love for embroidery and cross stitching.
I think I have been doing it a little at a time through the years, but recently, even my husband has noticed that I was embroidering more.

As you can see I love to put the pieces I stitch into fast and fun smaller projects.
I think they add a little something to them.

This little Halloween stitchery went together fast. It is finished and hung for Halloween.
Even embroidery looks good on a Tammy Bag.

These little cross stitch pieces are great to fit on a Tammy Bag.
I wasn't even aware I was doing this.  In looking back, I find I have been purchasing patterns that are incorporating embroidery needle cases, cute drawstring bags and miniature wall hangings.  Small projects that don't take long to complete.  I like the feeling of gratification that comes with completing something in a short amount of time.

I hope you are having a super day sewing, embroidering, or whatever makes your heart sing.
Enjoy

Mary

Looks like you're having fun! Cross stitch was my first love, and I'm so glad I've finally come back to it. Love your little Tammy bag.
