Slow Stitching Sunday

 

I have started stitching another scroll.  Just a tiny one this time.  I have a fascination with using up tiny bits of fabric.  I was raised by parents who grew up during the Depression and they learned not to waste anything.  I guess they passed that along to me.  Anyway, I get a lot of pleasure in taking little bits of nothing and turning them into something beautiful.  

I know it doesn't look like much just now.  I am hoping for a lovely afternoon of stitching.  I am hoping for lots of progress today.  It is a small project so it is possible to finish it quickly.  

Except...


Look at my dining room table!  Hubby left for his annual camping trip yesterday.  I went through my studio, tidied and put all my projects on the table.  Yesterday afternoon I worked on four of them.  Today I would like to stay focused on the tiny scroll but...

    Sounds fun to spread out and work on whatever you want! Enjoy your day!

    How wonderful to be 'home alone' and spread out one's work like that. I wish I could enjoy such freedom once in a while. Here, I have to put everything away at the end of the stitch session. I sometimes feel as if I am taking out and putting away WIPs more than actually working on them.
    The idea of making a tiny scroll to wind over a thread bobbin is great. Viva recycling!

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

Slow Stitching Sunday

  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.
