Happy Slow Stitching Sunday!
Here is a doll quilt I am making as a Christmas Gift for my 4 year old granddaughter. I think this quilt, a doll size pillow and a doll would make a sweet gift.
I've been hankering for a hand project to work on at night while watching TV with my hubby. I could quilt this on my machine in just a few minutes, but I think that hand quilting stitches will give it an old fashioned quilt feel.
Taped down in preparation of pin basting.
Pinned.
Testing the marking pin.
Passed the test!
The pattern came from the book, "The Civil War Sewing Circle", by Kathleen Tracy.

Any ideas for a series to watch while quilting, that doesn't have too much violence, nudity or bad language?
We are currently watching "Hart of Dixie" on Netflix. Its one we didn't watch when it was being originally shown. Its pretty good, but a little silly at times, and not too violent, etc. I already looked ahead on the internet to see what is going to happen. Yay, Zoe and Wade end up together in the end! Being a native southern girl, to me, the actor who played Wade, did a good job.
I would recommend "Call the Midwife", if you don't mind seeing a baby born on every episode. Loved that one.
We "tried" to watch "Outlander". I could NOT hang in there with it. The story was really good, but so hard to watch all the violence and nudity. We gave up on it after a few episodes. The older I get, the less I can take in the way of violence. But, that's just me! LOL
