Slow Stitching Sunday


 I added some beads this week.  I am leaning towards calling this finished.  There's a lot going on but I love it.  It would be easy to keep working on it but sometimes I just have to say stop.  This is going to be the cover of a box.  The box is going to hold a set of collage cards that I made.  I finished the last card this week.  It seems appropriate to finish the cover at the same time.

The collage cards were fun to create as well.  Honestly, all my artwork is fun because why do it if it is not fun?  I plan to use the collage cards as writing prompts.  There are only images on the cards and they can be interpreted in numerous ways so there is a lot of potential.

You must have a large stash of threads and beads as well as other assorted items for your pieces! Nice to have a decorated box to keep your cards.

You are so right - why do it if it's not fun?! Your stitchery is happy and colorful - my favorite kind!

So beautiful! I think each time I would open the box on which your gorgeous piece is covered to pull out a card, I would get distracted and gaze upon all the intricate details again. =)

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/
