New Zealand piece

Image
I added some beading to this piece.  I used a funky french knot to attach the beads.  If I would have used a lighter colour thread it would be more obvious. I am linking to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.com/

Quick Collages

Image
As usual, I used one ply of a decorative napkin to start these collages.  The color combination is striking.  Playing with the words was so fun!

Work in Progress Wednesday

This is my six-inch square block for the guild challenge.  Our guild is focusing on concepts this year.  That leaves it pretty wide open.  This month the topic is vision.  I looked up the Latin for 'go big' and wrote that on the piece.  I am encouraging myself to look at my future in bigger ways.

Take a Stitch Tuesday

Image
Coral Stitch  is the stitch Sharon B shows us this week.  I was excited to give it a try with bugle beads.  I think it worked quite well.

I heart Macro

Here is another of my kaleidoscope images.  I really enjoy creating these photographs.  I am beyond excited that I have been booked to create a video installation of my kaleidoscope photos.  The installation will be at  TheMuseum  in January 2019.

Little collages

Image
I created 8 of these little collages but seem to have misplaced one of them.  I am sure it will turn up eventually.  Some of them I stitched to fabric.  I wasn't loving it.  Now, strangely I don't mind the fabric.  The machine stitching adds interesting texture.

I haven't done a lot of crazy quilting this year.  I took the year off from participating in the Crazy Quilt Journal Project.  Sometimes I just need a break from it.  However, I did just sign up to participate for 2019.  I am looking forward to it.   In the meantime, I have been working on this CQ stocking for my granddaughter.  I am having fun with it.  There is still a lot of stitching to do but I have made good progress since I only started it about a week ago.
