Take a Stitch Tuesday

Sharon B challenges us with the Pistil Stitch this week.  This is a stitch that I have used frequently so wanted to try something new with it.  So, of course, I added beads tot he stitch.  It was a bit tricky to get the french knot at the end of the beads but I kept at it.

I think Pistil Stitch is a tricky one. The long leg makes it harder to make a tight French Knot. Adding a bead will make it even harder. You have been very patient.

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/
