I do however like to sit with my husband in the evenings who is a keen TV watcher, so I always have a hand sewing project on the go for the evenings. I also belong to a Bee that is hand sewing only. No machines, which is great we all sit around in a circle and chat and sew, great fun..Dorfymidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12935339999827070876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1053154610681166732.post-62890575681783904842013-06-07T12:31:31.187+01:002013-06-07T12:31:31.187+01:00I think my hobby is actually finishing something, ...I think my hobby is actually finishing something, I get disillusioned halfway through a project quite regularly which I think has made me realise this all the more.pennydoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425898433355516938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1053154610681166732.post-87010573748430281592013-06-07T07:58:03.590+01:002013-06-07T07:58:03.590+01:00For me hand sewing is done when I am sitting in th...For me hand sewing is done when I am sitting in the garden or "watching" TV.

In the warmer weather I tend to find myself at my machine. I think I am beginning to slow down and enjoy the process more. I have a little table in the lounge with my EPP and embroidery waiting for me at night. :)Sharon - Lilabelle Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17057515833969118954noreply@blogger.com
