Back into routine.

Hello dear Friends,
Getting back into routine after Christmas ,New Year Celebrations, School holidays and eating too much!!!
Now I am just counting my blessings ,starting of with a blank book and looking forward to a wonderful year ahead.
I have started with some new projects in the sewing room. I really didn't need them as I still have some old ones in the sewing room. but !! ,oh well it doesn't matter does it haha.
I am looking forward to starting this embroidery project.  It is a simple embroidery style project . It will be in keeping with my embroidery which is simple stitching.

Sashiko Stitching is a traditional embroidery style from Japan.
Relaxing and Meditative they say about the Sashiko way. Traditionally light coloured threads over dark cotton coloured fabric.

The cotton print fabric is a dark navy. It is not like in this photo under . It is my camera making it show light.

Above will be the main  border fabric ,I still have to choose fabric for a small border and the binding .

 The quilt made by my sewing group is for a charity .It has been quilted and waiting for the binding to be finished then taken to a charity to be raffled to earn money for the local charity our group will decide on.

This is a beautiful delicate coloured Cross Stitch that Lee has stitched and now has it finished and in a frame  on her wall. .I love those  pastel colours.

I wish you all the blessings you truly deserve.
Happy sewing days.
Jen xx
