Slow Stitching Sunday
I admire Sharon Boggon and her stitching. She does beautiful work and I have long wanted to do some stitching that emulates her work. I dove into that project this week. So much fun! The fabric is a beautiful piece of silk that was gifted to me. The colour of said silk is not really typical of the palette I use. So it is perfect for this as not much of it will be seen when all is finished. I do love the sound of stitching through silk. Is that a bit weird? I don't care if it is.
This is a fun project to play with colour and texture. It won't take long to fill the hoop. I was asked what am I going to do with it. I actually don't have a clue at this point. I am just enjoying doing it. Does it have to be anything?

I'm a great believer in stitching because it's fun! I've done some of those stitches and they look so nice.
ReplyDeleteOh, that is neat! I love the buttons sewn in and the shapes you're making. I get asked that same question all the time, and agree with you. Sometimes the most pleasure is in the doing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work! I took Sharon Boggan's scrumptious surfaces class and learned a lot. She does such inspiring work! Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteNo, 'it' doesn't need to be anything, except to shine in all its beauty. The silk fabric is sumptuous. I rather like the sound of a needle piercing through silk, too. Loving all those buttons being embellished with your beautiful threads and stitches; with itty beads in between. This piece is gorgeous, Angela.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are enjoying your pretty stitching. I can definitely understand enjoying the sound of stitching.
