Journal Week #40

The prompt this week is collage.  I created the tree with fabric scraps.  I love the way it turned out.  The sky is painted mulberry paper.  The ground is actually green but looks brown in this photo.  It is made from paper that I dyed.  The quote says 'A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine."  Anne Bronte

With fancy embroidery on the 'seams' of the pieces you would have a crazy quilt. Cq is actually an elegant form of collage, isn't it?
I like the mulberry paper sky, too.

Thanks for the comment on my blog! I really like this tree, the mulberry paper, and especially the quotation. These are the perfect words to start a new day! Thanks! Susan

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/
