This year I’ve tried to cut back on the things I sign up for so that I can get more things finished (like those 38 WIPs from the start of the year – ahem!) However, sometimes something comes along at the perfect time, and so it was for the Season By Hand series with the lovely ladies over at Clover and Violet
The idea behind the series is that as you’re packing up to head off on your holidays, you can slip in a little project or two to work on by hand – hex on the beach, bind in the car, or even make a little companion for one of your own travelling companions. There will be tips, advice and projects to keep you going, and you can even enter to win some prizes along the way.
So head on over to Clover and Violet and check out these posts:

Well you know I love me a little hand stitching 🙂
You can't beat a spot of hand stitching but I think I'm biased!
I love it too, this sounds fun!
Lovely idea! I need to get my hand sewing project sussed before FQR! Jxo
