A Friday finish and some not finishes.

 On Thursday I had an annual leave day booked and I had decided that I was going to make good use of the time and finish the dinosaur quilt. This is a large quilt 70 x 85 inches. I'd already started stitching the binding down and had gone round two corners but that still left almost three complete sides to stitch. I decided to break up the hand stitching, so I stitched the first of the three sides down and then did some household chores. Back to the binding for the second side and then I took the dogs for a walk. Once back from the walk I put a video on and got stitching on the last side. Finally the quilt was finished.

This quilt was started in 2024 and completely finished on 21 August 25. It has now gone to its new home.

Whilst I was busy trying to complete the quilt I had a delivery. Once I opened the package I found a lovely solid box.

and inside some delightful embroidery threads that have been hand dyed. These are the threads I ordered to complete the Kantha bird embroideries.

The threads are so smooth and feel lovely to stitch with.

I had hoped to also finish the crocheted Afghan. I've spent some time over the last week crocheting to join the rows. I still have some rows to do so maybe this will be a finish next week.

There are an awful lot of ends to be sewn or woven in before this blanket is finished.

I've also been working on the quilt I'm hand quilting but I think this will take another couple of weeks to be done. I haven't take a photo recently.

I'm linking this post with Friday finish or not finished. It's nice to have a project finished this week.

Take care
