Slow Sunday Stitching

It's a gorgeous Sunday here in Music City Tennessee!!!  I'm looking forward to some slow stitching this morning.....


Remember Winter Wonderland?  With all the knitting I've started lately, my embroidery has suffered, but I did manage to get a little in while at my daughter's house.  This is my third block, and it is coming along nicely.  I just love these little snow-people!  And there's nothing like a gentle embroidery project to work on while thinking about things of the Spirit on a beautiful Sunday morning!!!

Later on I plan to start work on Genevieve's Live-Love-Laugh baby quilt.  I have quite a lot of planning that has to be done before I can put needle to fabric, so I'll work on that for a few hours.  Then I'll grab my knitting and sit with my hubby watching the Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament the rest of the afternoon.  Yep, it's looking like a perfect day!!!

Oh yes, and I almost forgot to show you a picture of my completed Lone Starburst blocks in AQUAS....


There were not many scraps in my AQUA box, but there sure were some fun ones!  
I love that flower in the bottom left :*)

Linking up today with Kathy at Slow Sunday Stitching and SoScrappy's Rainbow Scrap Challenge.
Hugs & Blessings!

    Love the snowman! Great aqua , even with a handful to play with (me too) - thankful the next colour is red as I have tons of that.

    As always, I love what you are working on today. The snow people are cute as bugs ears and of course the aqua star is spectacular. I guess Easy Street didn't use up all your scraps, huh?

    Have a wonderful Sunday. I'm working on a customer binding today.

    I just love those Lone Starburst ...triangles and (I assume) paper piecing - what's not to love.

    I just love your little snowmen ... I don't think I noticed before that the fabric is a WOW with snowflakes! How gorgeous!!
