Take a stitch Tuesday

Sharon B. at http://pintangle.com/ shows how to do the buttonhole wheel cup stitch this week.  I have done the buttonhole wheel prior to this.  Adding the cup part was new to me.  I REALLY like the look of this stitch.  Well, at least the single cup.  I am not terribly fond of one on the far right.  I added two rows for the cup.  It looks a bit messy to me.  But that is probably my fault, I probably should stitched a little tighter.

You're always so quick! I am glad to hear you like the stitch, and yes, it is pretty, also with two rows!

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/
