Work in Progress

Two steps backward but one big step forward.  I wasn't happy with the beaded Vandyke stitch I had done on this piece so I picked it out.  I also wasn't happy with the beading done on the shibori ribbon so I picked that out.  I really don't like to pick out stitching.  I guess no one likes it.  Still I am glad that I did it.

I added a ton of beads to the top seam.  It took a few hours but it was enjoyable.  I find the handwork relaxing.

    Unpicking might be no fun, but often it is worth doing to get the result one wants.
    There is so much lovely structure in this block.

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

Slow Stitching Sunday

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
