I managed to squeeze in one last finish for this Easter season. This was my first attempt at hemstitching and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, it's not perfect - or even close to perfect - but hopefully will improve with practice. I'm a bit ashamed to admit that I've never tried this before, I've been stitching for over 20 years and this is the very first time, but I don't think it will be the last, it was easier than I thought it would be, which is always a nice discovery after worrying that it would be beyond my capabilities.
Please excuse my poor photo, it's raining and an inside shot was my only option :(
