Slow Stitching Sunday


 The very happiest of 2022 to everyone!  May this year be filled with joyful stitching!  May our creativity overflow and spread beauty.  

I haven't made a lot of progress on this mandala.  I am thinking it is very close to being finished.  Possibly some french knots will be added.  I have really enjoyed stitching on this silk.  Originally, I was thinking this would be a totally silk mandala, using only silk threads.  It didn't work out that way.  I still want to do a mandala of only silk though.  The possibilities are endless and I can't see myself stopping this series any time soon.

All the best for the new year.
I like the zig-zag pattern and how it is growing larger by the layers, like rings on water.

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/
