Slow Stitching Sunday


 This week I was going through some of my projects.  I painted, embroidered and beaded this piece a number of years ago.  I really like it and it was just languishing as the fun part was finished.  I need a new piece of art to hang in my dining room so I decided to make it this one.  I painted the background piece with Inktense and now I am quilting the two pieces together.  

I am just now noticing that there is too much white on some of the edges.  I will finish the quilting and then add some colour to cover up the white.  I may just use crayons on pencil crayons so that I can be more controlled with the colour.  I do like the way this coming together though.  I think it will look good in my dining room

Why, this pretty piece of artwork is just the thing for your dining room wall. It is so pretty. You will have to post a photo of it when you have finished it and this piece is in its final resting place.

Guest will not want to leave your dining room. Good food, I am sure, but the art is 'delicious', too!

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/
