Slow Stitching Sunday


I have sewn together some of my floofy book pages to create this scroll.  Some of the pages I wasn't super happy with but stitched them together anyway.  I am glad that I did that.  I will now add some embroidery to the joins.  I don't want the seams to be so noticeable.  I want the scroll to read as one unit, not individual pieces.  There must be a better way to say what I mean but hopefully, everyone understands what I mean.  

I believe that adding to the seam area will help with the pages that I am not thrilled with.  On the whole, I am happy with the way this is coming along.  I have lots more of these floofy pages.  I really enjoy stitching on these little gems.  I might have enough for three scrolls.  Plus, I add a bunch more scraps after cutting up some of my experimental fabrics.  So many more possibilities for floofy pages!

Yes I definitely know what you mean! When you add stitching that crosses the joins, it will be less noticeable and you will love every page :) ENJOY!

They are little gems. I especially like the color palette - if you don't have a title, I suggest "Ocean" something.

I bet your scrolls are so fun to look at up close and in person! I would want to see (and probably touch!) all the stitches and fabrics. Have fun adding more to what you've done already!

This is going to be a fantastic scroll, and by covering up the joints with fancy stitching or e.g. a decorated ribbon, you will add even more pizazz to it.

Your pieces are lovely, are you going to make a snippet roll?

This is a great scroll. I am sure you will make those pages that bother you into something pretty.

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!

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
