Catch Up Stitching

As you know, I've gotten a bit behind on my stitching, but I'm slowly catching up.  So, I thought I'd show my progress.  I'll admit I was initially going to show two blocks at a time...but I haven't finished a second one, so, instead, here is block nine:



I used yellow chain stitch for the string part, and while I regretted it while stitching, I actually think it looks fine in photographs, so that makes me feel better!  I am trying to even out my color usage before I run out of blue and purple.  Now that block twelve is released, I'm really looking forward to seeing quilts come together!

If you didn't get to stitch with us this time {or even if you did}, are you hoping for another stitch and quilt along?

    I most definitely would love another one! I found you a little too late to start the current one (with everything else I already had on my list), but I would love to join in if you do another one!

    Another stitch along would be great! I have two that I am working on now (because doing a stitching quilt was on my quilting bucket list for the year), however, I would add one more to do. I really enjoy the hand work.

    I take this opportunity to thank you so much for the Garden Steps stitch-a-long. I have enjoyed all your blocks and only the 12th is not finished yet.
    A new stitch-a-long would be great!
