Quilt or Smock? This is the Question.

Hello,

I don't know about other seamstresses but I usually have more than one project going.  I have a quilted casserole cover in progress and also my smocking piece.  So far I've learned the basic cable stitch, feather stitch and now working on a chevron stitch.  They are each nice stitches.  I know I will like each type of smocking stitch that I learn.  And there must surely be all sorts of stitches!

So anyway, now I have to decide whether to finish up my casserole cover or practice smocking.  Hmmm...it is "sew" hard! Then I also still have these ties that I bought recently to someday make a crazy quilted pillow!  Here's some pictures of my practice smocking piece and the front piece of the quilted casserole cover.





 Happy Sewing,

Marla
