Slow Stitching Sunday


 I added the pink seed beads to this mandala.  Smaller details were needed.  It doesn't look like I added a whole lot but if you have ever done any beading you know this took a couple of hours.  The process is slow and meditative and that is just what I love about it.  As usual, I am not exactly sure what the next step is for this mandala.  I am thinking of more seed beads.  I am inching ever closer to having this one finished.  The finishes are very satisfying!  Plus having a solo show in December is great motivation!

I've never added beads to any of my stitching, but yours are always so pretty! I should try it!

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/
