Slow Sunday Stitching - November 15, 2026

This week, it's all about moving to the finish line.  Now, I'm not AT the finish line, but I'm within sight on several projects.  

First of all, the final project in the current rotation - "Collaboration Bellpull" is on the last section!  I've worked quite a bit on it this week, moving in from the borders.   I still have to do the rest of the eyelets, the little floral bits in the four corners and the pulled thread area between the heart and the octagon, which has pretty sketchy directions, tbh.   I'll figure it out.   Not sure if I can finish and FFO it in five more hours, but I'll at least get it to the 'ready for beading' phase, I'm sure. 

  And speaking of beading.   The perforated paper Santa is to the point of just needing beads and embellishments prior to assembly.  There's over 60 bead and star sequins to put onto this one!   That's a lot of bling LOL.  There's almost as many beads on this little Santa as there are on the big one.

And here's a sneak peek before the beading starts on the big guy!  I may put a line or two of backstitching in on the bishop's staff just to make the swirly bits stand out a little bit more.  

But at any rate, it looks to be a 'finish up frenzy' around here over the next few weeks!   Stay tuned for those posts!   And in the meantime, catch up with the rest of the SSS crew.  All kinds of interesting things happening! (A link to the current round up here.)
