Slow stitching on a Sunday

 I am relaxing this afternoon with some hand quilting while watching Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grinderwald.  I just finished the feather circle and I think it needs a grid behind it. Still thinking on it but I'll work on the bear paw for a bit as a change. 



I was awake from 1AM-4:30AM this morning watching and waiting on the F1 race in Japan. It started on time at 1 and made 3 laps before the accidents and dangerous conditions caused a red flag for a couple of hours. We were wondering if it would resume or not - but things cleared up enough to get the last 40 minutes of the timeframe in and it was quite an exciting 40 minutes! Aidan slept until noon! I got woken up about 8:45 by the dog. The cats decided to venture out to the living room with us since the dog was shut in a room sleeping. It was nice to see them get comfy with each other again as they have been in separate parts of the house for the last few months. 
Despite a few hours of sleep before the race, I am just tired today and don't feel like doing too much! I did pop out to the new Publix grocery store that opened near us. That will be very tempting to pop out and get a yummy sub for lunch, I think. 
The kids are off school tomorrow, so I scheduled dentist and yearly doctor checkups for them. They did not want to be pulled from school for them. 
Linking up with the Slow Sunday Stitching.

Your feather circle came out really lovely; I think a grid would set it off nicely...
We watched F1 (for-ever!!) and see that Verstappen won AGAIN!! It seems like a foregone conclusion lately ;000 But he is a fabulous driver and has a really good car--who can beat that?
I searched all afternoon for the A Frame cabin--not so easy...
Hope you enjoy your day off...hugs, julierose (maybe you can stitch while waiting during appointments? )

I really like that feather circle. I am not sure either way about the grid behind it, but I am sure you will figure it out once you finish a bear claw block. Have a great week!

I can't think of anything I'd get up in the middle of the night to see!! LOL
