Wild Mandala

Image
 With this mandala finish I am ever so close to being ready for my solo show.  When I first put this one together I was thinking I would treat it like a crazy quilt.  My concern was that all the stitching would be lost in the busy fabric.  So this piece waited for the right idea.  I can be patient and know that the right thing will always show up for me.  That happened this week.  While at a thrift store I found these wonderful trims.  They seemed perfect for this mandala even if it takes it a bit over the top.   Time and the weather cooperated and I was able to sit outside to stitch.  Always a treat!  I hope there are more days like that yet.  It is getting cooler though.  I have three mandalas waiting in the wings.  Two of which I feel certain I can get finished.  The third may not happen as I am collaborating with some seniors on a project that will require me stitching a mandala.  I think it will be fun for them to have their work included in a show!
