I Like

 

I like fabric.  Probably a little too much.  I love playing and experimenting with it.  I have a plastic bin full of my experiments.  Some painted pieces, some hand-dyed pieces and all manner of other surface treatments.  I have used some of it over the years but it is out of hand right now.  It is a mess and that is making it hard to find things.  

I have gone through some of it and cut it into six-inch squares.  I like hand stitching the best but right now I am enjoying my sewing machine.  Stitching the squares together by machine is so much faster.  The hum of my sewing machine is quite pleasant.  

I like my beautiful life.  I am glad to be home from the cottage vacation with my family.  Of course, it was enjoyable.  I cherish my family.  

I like the great group of women who participate in this I Like blog post.  Thank you to LeeAnna for hosting us all!

I like fabric, too! No matter what your bins look like, it's definitely fun to pull pieces out, sort through them, cut them to size and then sew back together in a new shape. Have fun!

I think the sound of my sewing machine lowers my blood pressure! I always feel so calm when I get to sit down and sew. Always a good feeling!

We have a common interest for sure! FABRIC! yay! I also like handwork but machine work is fun too. I hope you had a chance to fondle some fabric over the weekend!

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

  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.
