I already have a very good start on my bead journal for May.  I hand dyed the doily and love the way it turned out.  This mandala series is giving me a lot of pleasure.  There seems to be no limit on them.  This morning I saw a quilt that was made with a doily-like tablecloth.  So much larger than I have been working.  That was inspiring and I will consider doing a larger piece in this way.

Bead Journal

I had a number of positive comments about the large pink beads I used so I decided to keep them.  I did add some small purple beads which I think makes it more interesting.  There isn't a ton of stitching on this piece so I may return to it and add more at some point.  For now, it is done.

This fabric started out white.  I stencilled it and then did a wash of lighter blue over it.  I did some embroidery stitches with fusible thread and then adhered transfer foil to it.  The experimenting was so fun! I am linking to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.com/

This journal is absolutely bulging.  I should probably stop using it as closing it is increasingly difficult.

My April CQ block is finished.  This is the last block needed to finish a quilt.  It is going to look good when all the blocks are put together.  It is always fun to have a crazy quilt finished but it is not my favourite part.  I need to figure out what the rest of my blocks for this year will be.  I am linking to http://needleandthreadnetwork.blogspot.com/ http://www.esthersquiltblog.com / https://www.quiltfabrication.com/
