Some experiments are more successful than others


I made paper this past week.  I incorporated some thread bits in it and really like the way that looks, top photo.  The bottom photo shows the web of paper I made.  Not too happy with that mess, that's for sure.  Possibly I can cut out small parts of it and make use of it that way.  I can imagine doing another mixed media bead journal and incorporating it into that.

I made paper for years then got ore into quilting. I hae been thinking lately, now that I am more into fiber art, how to merge paper into quilts.

(how come I never have any NEW ideas?????)

Oh well, love your paper!

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/
