Sunday Stitching 10 November 24

 this week the additional tome is due to watching the remembrance ceremony at the cenotaph   (other than the two mins silence of course)


I think it has gone from a bit scary to sad ?












I also did a little on the project I started on Wednesday BFF session. There is less to show than there was sewing done. Yes the frog had to help me out of a counting mistake. Ah well I enjoyed stitching it in the first place so I get double the fun having to do it again.  I have also learned that with this pattern doing the backstitch as I go is going to help with the counting.

BFF RAL

 whilst we still have the backstitching to go on SAL 16 and have a maybe plan for 17 (gosh yes 17) this week it is a RAL  (Random Along).

I felt like starting something new, so I did. Not what I might consider my normal style, but a change can be fun.


hmm well not looking like much at the moment but it was very relaxing.

I did do a little more on the  pattern I was working on last week off camera, as that is allowed for a RAL.


my BFF has not posted as I finish this so I can't link to post but if you click on the link at the side of my blog it will get you there.

Sunday Stitchings November 3rd 2024

 I thought I would do the next shade of brown, that there would be something viewable at the end. Oh and the brown stood out, erm perhaps a bit much. Oh too much, I had sewn with the darkest shade and it was the wrong one.

So out it came, faster than it went in, I managed to get all of the incorrect colour out and a little start on the right shade within my normal Sunday sewing time.



When I got home, and after lunch I went to take the update picture and there was not that much to show. I decided to apply BFF Sal rules when frogging has been required. Going back to where I would have been at the point the mistake was spotted.

However, I got a bit carried away as as those stitches were in the ! I will just finish this length of thread" lie popped into my head. Followed by "there are only a few stitches left in this section" on loop.

The result quite a bit more progress than I would have made within normal Sunday  Stitchings time.

There was nothing made in our Primary lesson at Church today, but my candle is still in place.
