Slow Stitching Sunday


 I have added a tiny bit of stitching to this piece.  I am wondering if that bead in the middle is too large.  I love the colour of it so I will leave it for now.  Once more beading and stitching have been added it may not seem like such a bull's eye.  I managed to capture some of the gleam of the transfer foil in this image.  Oh, transfer foil, how I love you!  Such an easy way to add shimmer and shine.  

It is supposed to be a warm and sunny day today.  Perfect for sitting outside to stitch which I have been longing to do.  I might be able to snatch a few minutes before the grandchildren get here.  Hubby is going to make his famous hamburgers for supper.  Yum!  It will be a lovely day whether I get to stitch or not.

Love your new piece, and the color of the button. We are in the 70's to 80's this week, and I need to get some yard work done this week before I leave for Boston the week after to see my granddaughter graduate from nursing school. The homemade hamburgers sound luscious!

Hamburgers and sitting in the sunshine working on one of your pretties....sounds perfect to me. And....fun with the grandchildren! Why, Angela I think your Sunday sounds wonderful. Do you know, I think I am in love with your transfer foil as well. Love the snippets of chain stitch you have stitched. As for the pretty button; I rather like it.

It's already Wednesday and I have not commented yet - sorry.
The transfer foil adds just the nice amount of reflection for your mandala.

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!

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
