I hope everyone is having a great holiday season. I had a fairly quiet one, with just family at my son's house. We did a taco bar. I got some practical gifts - a vacuum sealer, a new drill (at my request), and sock yarn (though I think it will be a hat or cowl since it has yak fiber in it).
I'm sharing the December Temperature Log early since it will be a finish right after midnight on New Year's Eve. December's specialty stitch is "Octagonal Eyelet". Our high temps have been fairly warm, so we are not really into the blue part of the spectrum.
And here's a close up:Look for the Finish on New Year's Day, though it will need to be framed at some point.Today's Slow Stitching is hemming. My granddaughter's other grandma bought her a couple pairs of lounge pants that are too long. I've done one pair already, and here's the second pair in progress. I do like using my vintage sewing bird when doing hemming or seam felling. Being able to keep tension on the piece makes it so much easier.
Linking up with the other Slow Sunday Stitching folk. (See this week's links here.)




Great job keeping up on your temp stitch along. Love your vintage sewing bird. I recently started using vintage thimbles. It makes me feel connected to my grandma.
ReplyDeleteI really like the temperature stitching project. The different stitches each month make it really interesting to look at. Great project. Pretty yarn too. Gail at the Cozy quilter.
