Work in Progress Wednesday


 I have made a bit of progress on this mandala.  The purple fabric base looks really grey in this photo, just like the last time.  To be fair the purple is a very grey purple but this is really not capturing it at all.  Still, I like the fabric as a base as it really lets the metallic threads sparkle.  That makes me happy.  Sparkle is always good.  I want to add as much sparkle and joy to this world as I can.  Would that we all put as much grace and beauty into this world!

I, too, find some fabric VERY difficult to photograph. Luckily I know the true colour and can enjoy it 'live'.
This mandala is not only beautiful because of the sparkle, you have used the stitches to their advantage. Together they for a lovely pattern. Enjoy your work!

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/
