Slow Stitching Sunday

I am stitching another scroll.  They are the perfect slow-stitching project for me.  For this one I am trying to use mainly the plain old running stitch.  I like the way it looks on this.  I mainly used scraps of old linens and they feel so good.  They are time-worn and soft.  I have added some yoyos that I bought from a thrift store as their colours are just right.  I started using some buttons as well.  I want to add more buttons but need to be mindful that they don't add too much weight.  

These soft muted colours are not my typical choice but I do love them.  I love working with brights but sometimes need to shake it up a bit.

    This scroll has a nice vintage look. I love the mixture of lace, Suffolk Puffs and buttons.

    Lovely piece! I love getting the old linens and hankies and such and using them up!

    I've been wanting to make a scroll, but have too many other projects to finish. :) Maybe soon! Yours looks very inspiring.

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

Slow Stitching Sunday

 How did it get to be December!  I really meant to fill in the big gaps in my November slice!  I still might.  We will see how it goes.  I got a lot of other stitching done in November so I guess that distracted me from this project.  There is only one slice left to stitch on this project and I find myself jumping ahead to next year. I wonder if I want to do another monthly project like this for next year.  I like having a monthly project.  I might consider doing a mixed-media instead of stitching.  Not that I couldn't incorporate some stitching into that though.  I have no clear idea at this point and that's okay.  I have to get through the holidays!   I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/
