I decided it was time.
I’d been neglecting Anemone in favour of feverishly stitching away at Delft. I’ve reached the point with Delft that it can just sit for a bit until I’m ready to piece large sections together, never my favourite part. Anemone has been quietly waiting on my cutting table (and yes, taking up all the space and preventing me starting yet another new project). Time to start hand quilting again.
So that’s what I did. And now I’m up to row 24 and three more are marked up ready to go. It’s actually quite soothing. I can listen to podcasts or YouTube videos while I stitch along the rows of scallop shapes. Three rows at a time is about enough before the fingers get too sore and I have to take a bit of a break before starting again.
It’s still hexies, but at least I’m not sewing them together any more…

I love how the stitches look on the darker fabric 🙂
Yes! They pop beautifully and create an unexpected secondary pattern which I really like.
Beautiful 💝
Getting there, slowly but surely.
This one and Delft are truly labours of love!
They are, but the results will be totally worth it.
I like your quilting design, scallops/clamshell a favourite of mine at present
It’s totally my go-to hand quilting favourite. I love how it lets me just go row by row without needing to reposition a hoop.
