Take a Stitch Tuesday


The Up and Down Buttonhole was a little difficult to work properly on this handmade paper.  It would like nicer if I could have stitched more closely but then the paper would have ripped.  Still, it was fun to give a try.  Thanks to Sharon B at http://pintangle.com/ for the instructions.

This is one of my favourite TAST stitches and looks especially good when worked on a curve or circle.

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/
