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.

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!

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 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/
