Slow Sunday Stitching-Moon Over Blackbird

 Slow Sunday Stitching—Kathy's Quilts. 

I’m spending pleasant minutes here and there on a free Lizzie Kate Fall stitch—even though Fall seems a far off place with all the heat/humidity lately. Moon Over Blackbird has been fun to work on  


I like these pre-stretched blanks for quick projects. I’ll put another thread length or two into the project before heading to the sewing room. 
I was at the ironing board last weekend while we were waiting on Hurricane Hilary, it was raining pretty well when the Ojai Earthquake hit. We’re not that far from Ojai so it was very scary—lots of aftershocks. We felt the stronger aftershock a couple of days later—at 4 am—I couldn’t get back to sleep so got up and stitched for a bit. That’s enough major nature events this decade!

What a fun stitching chart. And what a not-so-fun experience with the earthquake!! Glad you are okay.

We were in CA last week and should have felt the earthquake, but we were far enough away in Carlsbad that we weren't aware of it. Earthquakes are not fun to experience. I like Moon Over Blackbird. It is cute.

So deficiently one of those "Mother Nature" is angry weekends! Glad you didn't suffer any damages from either the storm or the earth quake. Hope you've found some serenity with your slow stitching or in you sewing room this week.

At least for hurricanes (in my case typhoons) we can prepare a bit. Those earthquakes hit so unexpectedly!
