I love the work but am not good at hand stitching and don't enjoy it either. Enjoy your day
I used to like hand stitching my bindings and then I found if I take a bit extra time in my binding to get it the right size I can use my machine "Blanket" stitch and it looks great both sides. I don't do SID as I keep on wandering :roll:
