Oh goodness! Since I handsew almost everything there’s way I could choose just one! My favorite thing to handsew however is doll clothes. :o)

Well, I’ve only made a pillow, so I guess that’s my favorite thing! :)

Not so much a project, but my grandmother and I used to sit together and do cross stitch when I was a child. To this day I still relax doing hand sewn projects.
