A finished jacket

I kept changing my mind about how much to add to this, but have decided enough is enough, so it's done for now.  The idea is that more patches will be added, but this will be as and when repairs are needed.

Linking up with Whoop Whoop Friday over at Confessions of a Fabric Addict and TGIFF, hosted this week by my friend Mary at Fleur de Lis Quilts

Buttons

I'm still quilting away and making good progress, I think, but for today's Slow Sunday Stitching post I thought I'd show these lovely buttons, which I'm just about to add to the denim jacket.

The first one is one and I like how it is looking.

More than enough for one Sunday

At the moment I'm spoiled for choice when it comes to slow stitching: I don't have much on the go that doesn't involve sitting with a needle and thread.  So, today, I will be basting the next pile of circles.

Once those are done I'm going to add a bit more to my jacket - I have some pieces pinned in place and keep catching myself on the pins (the jacket is on the back of my sewing chair) so I want to get rid of them before I do some damage.

After that, if there's time, there's quilting to be done.

Off at a bit of a tangent

Now that the denim is finished, I managed to sneak in a day sewing with my sister again.  We are trying another jacket: this is where we've got to so far.

So my slow Sunday stitching today will be a bit more on the front of this.
