Slow Stitching Sunday


 I believe this wool mandala is finished.  It is time to pull out all the mandalas for this project.  They will be stitched to a quilt.  I will put them all in place but before stitching them to the quilt, I will decide if any of them need some more embroidery added.  

I will need to lay it out on the floor to get a good look.  Small problem with that though.  My golden retriever is shedding big time.  There is no chance of laying it out without getting covered in fur.  Even if I thoroughly sweep as the fur gets everywhere and flies about.

It feels good to have this project nearing completion.

    Looking forward to seeing what quilt these get attached to. These would be pretty layered over a boldly patterned pieced top.

    That is such a pretty mandala, Angela! I love the colors in it. Are those swirly pieces buttons (or beads)? They make me think of seashells!

    Oh dear, wool mandalas and shedding dogs is not good. What a fabulous quilt it will be with all your lovely mandalas gathered together.

  I am still working away at attaching my circles to this piece.  I have added some other stitching as well.  I am very keen to add some beading to this one but that must wait.  Beading needs to be the last step.  I don't need the frustration of my threads getting snagged on the beads.   Progress can feel oh so slow.  Especially when it is because I am distracted by other projects!

 I enjoyed stitching my September slice.  I got out my book by Carole Samples Treasury of Crazy Quilt Stithes.  It has wonderful combinations of stitches.  I have had this book for years and never properly used it.  It uses basic stitches in interesting combinations. So, I didn't really learn any new stitches but I did enjoy combining stitches in new ways.  I might find that more helpful in the long wrong.   The weather has still been cooperative for stitching outside.  The week ahead looks good too.  I might get a jump start on my October slice.  It is sad to think about putting away the deck furniture but it can wait at least a week.

 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/
