Slow Sunday Stitching

 

Now that both eyes have had their new lens put in and I can see clearly out of both eyes, it is time to get some more hand stitching done on the next Lucy blocks. I had this all set up on the patio a month ago before the surgeries. It was not so easy to do those tiny stitches when I could not see them so clearly. I had taken the photos on my phone and just now got them moved over here from a facebook post. Slow internet. Still have not found the battery charger for the camera. 

I love this block. I had it started a few months ago and took it to Scrub Stitching in Australia in April. I put in a few stitches and Sylvia gave me the red print on the corners. I do plan to write up about Australia. Soon, I hope. It has to do with moving pictures and focus. I did get a lot of white hexies glue basted for the sashing units. Now to stitch them into groups of threes.
I have my small group ladies retreat on next weekend and now that the eyes are both focusing at the same time, I have a gzillion details to attend to.
