Work in Progress Wednesday


 Last week I made a giant leap forward on illustrating my book.  I went through some past completed projects and found some that will work beautifully for the book.  This beaded snowflake was enhanced with some hotfix Swarovski crystals.  I used the whole package of crystals.  It was rather liberating to use up all of something that I consider precious.  What better project could they have been used on?  I can always get more if I need them!  My granddaughter is going to love all the sparkly goodness!

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/
