Dyeing Fun!

Oh my gosh!  I have so much fun with dyeing fabrics.  I haven't played like this for a while but I am delighted with my results.  The piece on the left is done on cotton with Dye-na-flo paints to create sunprints.  I used some bicycle gears to create the marks.  So fun!  The other pieces are silk.  Yummy!

Now that is what I should be doing with my bicycle gears. Much better than reattaching the chain miles from home.

Who would have thought that bicycle gears are pretty things! Great colours and obviously great fun! Keep on!

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/
