Since I hand stitched these items, Leaf has acquired an automatic sewing 🧵 machine all its own. Pic on this later.
Take a look at my 73.5” x 68” picnic cloth, serving its purpose. I stitched it by hand using the machine stitch.
Here are pix of place mats, all six of them, hand stitched by me using the top stitch.
A doily using the same gingham fabric stitched with the machine stitch, by hand. I may embroider some motifs to this.
A table runner, once again hand stitched by me using the machine stitch.
Here’s our brand new sewing machine 😊.
