Work in Progress Wednesday


 This mandala is finished.  After painting the tatted doily not a lot needed to be added.  That alone was pretty.  Still, no beads just didn't seem right.  Buttons, beads and faux gemstones were added.  All of which made me happy.  Whittling down the WIP feels good.  I am always eager to start something new but having too many projects on the go doesn't feel good either.  I must exert a little self-discipline. I usually am pretty decent at that.  However, there are times when it goes right out the window.  There will be no new starts until I finish a couple of more WIP.

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/
