Work in Progress Wednesday

This crazy quilt is finally finished and hanging on my wall.  It took forever to get this done.  More years than I care to mention.  I learned so much putting this all together.  My skills and knowledge have increased over the years so I can see where this piece could be improved.  I am trying really hard to not let the inner critic rage.

If we look through an old photo album we see how we have grown and how strange our hairstyles were in the past.
If we look through our old school notebooks we see how our spelling as well as handwriting have improved over the years.
So a quilt like this is just good evidence that we have changed, picked up skills we did not have when we started and this leaning curve is VERY important.
I think you should treasure this wonderful quilt forever.
Let the inner praise overflow!

Crazy Quilts are such amazing creations and so much to learn from them, not just quilting but embroidery and other needle crafts... Love how yours has turned out

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

Image
 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/
