Slow Stitching Sunday


 I had been feeling the need to do an encrusted piece of work.  No big ideas were coming to me.  It made sense to take one of my small floofy book pages and encrust it.  It was fun to go through my stash of beads to pick out the right things.  I do love going through my stash!

I am thinking it could use a bit more stitching but maybe not.  I have to be mindful of this becoming too heavy.  I also have to be aware of the edges.  A decision still has to be made as to which edges will be sewn together to form the scroll.  

Yesterday was my slow stitching day.  The weather was perfect for stitching outside and enjoying my deck.  I am not sure if that will work for today.  Thankfully, we are getting a bit of rain right now.  No complaints.  We desperately need it.

It must seem like a treasure hunt each time you go through your stash. How fun!

You have a lot in your stash to choose from. Even if you didn't have so much, you would make the best of what you had. Look how the stitches add structure and texture. Some of them are like beads themselves.

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

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
