Glass Totem


 I have had a lot of fun creating glass totems.  Here is another one that I created.  I particularly like the trapped butterfly.  I enclosed it because I had painted it with alcohol ink and I wasn't sure it would stand up to the weather.  My granddaughter wanted to be able to touch it as it sparkles.  Shopping at thrift stores to find the right glass piece is fun for me.  I would love to create more of them but don't know where I would put them.

That's a nice one! It takes the onlooker a bit of time to realise what the totem is made up of.
One thing about having glass ornaments in the garden - should anything break and you have glass in the grass (!) it will be difficult to find and pick up. Please make sure your granddaughter, or pets, are not in danger.

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/
