New Discoveries!!!





Who knew!!!  I found this cool stuff called dubbing in the fly tying department.  I thought it looked suspiciously like angelina fibres.  I figured I would buy it and find out if it works like angelina.  I thought if it doesn't work I can use it in needle felting.  Well, sure enough with a hot iron this stuff works just like angelina fibres.  Of course, it being a product that men purchase it is half the price of angelina fibres.  Big surprise.


The blue pictured above has lost it's sparkle as I ironed it a bit too long.  You do have to be careful.

Oh, great find! That actually brings the price on the stuff within reason.

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

 Working on another wool mandala.  It is a pleasure to have the wool on my lap now that the weather has turned colder.  I started this project back in the summer and didn't enjoy working on it so much then.  I wonder if I can complete this project this winter.  There are fifteen wool mandalas to do.  It doesn't seem likely that I will.  I could be wrong.  I don't want to put any undue pressure on myself.  There is no deadline.  The spring might be cool enough to continue working on it.   My but I do jump into the future.  Slow stitching really helps me to be present.  I am so grateful that stitching is such a balm for my soul.  We all need to have something that does that for us.   I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/
