Slow Stitching Sunday


 Farley's dog tag is attached.  I am not totally sure if I really like the way I have attached it or not.  I will continue to consider it.  There is still more stitching to do.  There aren't enough beads on it yet.  I definitely made progress on this piece and I am really liking it.  I am excited to do more dog tag stitched journal pages.  One for each of the beautiful souls that enriched my life.  Dogs are the best.


The first dog that came into my life was Lady.  A furry ball of energy attacked my shorts and pulled them down.  I was only 4 or 5.  I remember vividly being humiliated and not understanding why my parents didn't help me.  Of course, they were splitting a gut with laughter.  I am sure I would have done the same in their place.  Even though it was a bit of a rough start, I loved Lady.

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/
