New sewing project and other stitchy updates and a finish!

I really wanted a cute project bag to take on vacation. My mom gave me the main fabric years ago. It was leftover from a pillow blanket she made many years ago. I had the perfect fabric to go with it and off I went.  I made the large bag, a small zipper pouch, thread catcher, project mat and wrist keychain (not pictured).  Tangled progress. This is at  72.16% complete. That's 197,210 stitches down 76,070 stitches to go And I have a finish!  My travel project is complete! My Stained Glass Purple Rose is complete. It has been on several adventures but finally it's done.  This is 27,783 stitches. Started 13 Jun 2025 and finished 13 July 2026.

It's getting spooky!

Finished up this wall hanging over the weekend. I wasn't really sure what the end product was going to be when I started but super happy with how this turned out! Each block before border was trimmed to 5" (4.5" finished). Orange and black borders were cut at 1.5". Outside pumpkin border was cut at 3" and I add the scrappy binding but sewing together 2.5" pieces together. A few close up pics of some of the embroidery I didn't end up using this one. She will go into another project. Maybe a pillow.
