Slow Stitching Sunday


 This one is done.  I added some Inktense colour to get the sky right and I am happy with it now.  I added more stitching to the flowers.  I think it is time to stop.  Well, I may need to add something to back as I am planning for this to be a page in a large book.  Covering over the mess on the back might be a good idea.  Or maybe I will embrace the rebel in me and just let everyone see the mess.

I love peeking at the messes on the back. My backs always look like those of a maniacal stitcher. Love all that glorious texture of the sky; together with the pretty flowers....your 'picture' is perfect!

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/
