Take a Stitch Tuesday


The top photo is my attempt at closed Herringbone stitch.    Bottom photo is my attempt at Woven chained bar stitch.  I still have some weaving to finish on that.  I was getting a little tired of doing but will hopefully get it finished in the next day or so.

I love your closed herringbone stitch! The weaving sounds time consuming for the woven chained bar stitch. You are braver than I am, using a metallic floss! I look forward to seeing it when it is done.

That metallic fabric really sets off your stitching. Great.

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/
