Hand stitchery


sewing irony, originally uploaded by LauraJ_Sews.

I love to hand stitch but it's just something that takes forever and in this fast paced world I want results and projects to be done yesterday. But slow and steady will win the race, although there is no race in this case. Just a long over due finished bee block for a very dear flickr friend. I am hoping to finish by Thursday so I can mail it off.

I thought it was quite funny that I was hunched over my very modern expensive sewing machine while hand stitching. Yeah, life's like that. You gotta find the funny in it.

sometimes the hand sewing can be nice and zen like, but you have to be in the right emotional space...
