I sewed the binding on for the quilt I finished today. I have to admit, it looks pretty good, but I miss not being able to hand stitch it. I love hand stitching, it's the most relaxing thing I do. I just don't do it often cause I last only about 10 minutes, then it's lights out. I take a nap every time I hand stitch, whether it's quilting or sewing binding or sewing pieces. Works better and faster than any pm med I've ever tried! I truly believe that I can feel my pulse slow down and pressure drop. I used to bring hand work to the hospital to sit with mom just for this reason. I'd sew and chat with mom till one of us dozed off. If I spent the whole day, we might take 4-5 catnaps and I'd never quite finish the chore at hand!
