Slow Sunday Stitching - July 26, 2020

First up, the garden report.   I have tomatoes - so many tomatoes.   First day there were any ripe was just a few, but now I'm getting four times this or more every day.  Good thing I love tomatoes LOL.

There's been some crafting, too.  I got to 10 hours on the Elizabeth Designs "Garden Delights".  This includes frogging and redoing the entire left double running border.  I hate it when I get off a thread.
Quite a bit of mending this week, all for the kids and grandkids.  No photos of that.   And I'm trucking along on the assembly on the pincushion and sweetbag.  SO much cording!
Now it's time for breakfast and a look to see what the other SSS's are up to.  (Link to current round-up.)

  1. Yum...home grown tomatoes are the best! The Garden Delights is such a pretty stitching project. What a lovely mum and grandmother you are, mending all their clothes.

  2. Yeah for ripe tomatoes! I planted three sweet millions tomato plants this year. I am going to attempt making sun dried tomatoes in the dehydrator. Frog stitches happen. I've been mending as well-- mostly summer shorts for our son. Keep on stitching!

    1. Tomato season is the best - Mother Nature rewards us for the miserable heat with a bounty from the garden!

  5. Sadly, my tomato plants haven't been yielding many tomatoes this year. A strong storm knocked one of the plants over and several unripe tomatoes fell off. Hubby wrapped the larger ones in paper and they have ripened, but they are smaller than they should be. Sorry you had to frog so much. Your piece is looking very pretty. I am looking forward to seeing the pincushion and sweetbag when they are finished.
