Take a stitch Tuesday

Sharon B at http://pintangle.com/2014/10/07/take-a-stitch-tuesday-133-triple-chain/ teaches us the Triple Chain stitch this week.  What a cool stitch!  It looks fairly complicated but it is not.  The fabric I stitched into was a bit thick and therefore a little unpleasant.  I found myself getting a little impatient with it.  Never a good thing.  I definitely want to try this again. It might look really good with a couple of colors of thread.

You are quickly off the ground as usual! These chain stitches create a beautiful line to cover a cq seam. I can well see them in variegated thread.

Bead Journal for September

I feel like this has enough beading now.  The beading enhances the kaleidoscope without obliterating it.  I pushed myself outside of my box by using some bigger beads.  I am always learning!

Slow Stitching Sunday

 Working on another wool mandala.  It is a pleasure to have the wool on my lap now that the weather has turned colder.  I started this project back in the summer and didn't enjoy working on it so much then.  I wonder if I can complete this project this winter.  There are fifteen wool mandalas to do.  It doesn't seem likely that I will.  I could be wrong.  I don't want to put any undue pressure on myself.  There is no deadline.  The spring might be cool enough to continue working on it.   My but I do jump into the future.  Slow stitching really helps me to be present.  I am so grateful that stitching is such a balm for my soul.  We all need to have something that does that for us.   I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/
