(One of) my current hand stitching projects

I really love hand stitching. Its portability and the soothing feeling of a beautiful creation coming together stitch by stitch. My flying geese colour wash centre is almost complete and last night I started working on the border. I wanted to make sure no fabric was wasted in this quilt, so all the cut off corners had to be rolled into the border somehow. 
Each border strip will be made from sixteen 9-patch units and the colour wash continues. 
I think I'll call this quilt "every feather".
