Slow Stitching Sunday
I enjoy having a monthly project to work on throughout the year. I have landed on an idea for this year but it is not fully formed. I love mixed media and have so many wonderful supplies. I have not explored a lot of them. So my intention is to use those supplies and create a tree each month. Possibly I will create more than one tree. I plan to play with silk pods, silk carrier rods, Angelina fibres and more.
I also have some samples/experiments that I want to use. Some of these can be difficult to stitch through so that is something to consider. Also, I am undecided about what form this project should take. Do I want to make another scroll or other book form? What will my substrate be for each tree?
At least I have a direction to go in. I know it will all come together eventually!

Good to have a theme for your project, month by month. Gail at the cozy quilter
ReplyDeleteA tree for every month sounds like a wonderful idea! I'll enjoy seeing that take shape.
ReplyDeleteYou have some pretty fabrics there. I look forward to seeing your trees grow throughout the year.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great idea to let your creative juices (sap!) flow. As for difficult material to stitch through, one lady who took part in TAST stitched on wood. She had to drill holes for the stitches. It was an exercise in planning carefully to avoid making holes in the wrong places.

I like this idea. I think I would do a book form for the trees. I look forward to seeing the materials that you decide to use and how you use them. Your work is always so fascinating.
