Slow Stitching Sunday


 I think my little fish is finished.  I had thought about adding beads but there is enough sparkle on this little fish.  Some loose threads need to be clipped or trapped underneath when I stitch it into its home.  I had so much fun stitching this fish that I have started another one.  I am also thinking about doing a butterfly in the same way.  

They will all find a home in the right project eventually.  In the meantime, I will enjoy the slow stitching!

   I am glad that  LeeAnna  asks these questions.  It is fun to think about the answers! did you get school clothes and shoes for the start of school? Did you look through the enormous Sears catalogue at all the possibilities and dream?  Remember going to the store with probably a mom, and trying on clothes? A shoe store for your "school shoes" Back-to-school shopping was not done in our home.  Mom bought clothes when she found a good bargain.  Mom sometimes would sew or knit for us.  We also got hand-me-downs.  We were always clean and appropriately dressed for the season.  I hated the ugly footwear she would buy for me.  I now have a very large collection of gorgeous shoes!  Lots of sparkles! My family got together this past weekend.  Cousins, aunts, and uncles all came together for a barbecue at my home.  There were 30 of us all told.  14 of which were under the age of 16.  It is lovely to get caught...

 I started this collage-style fish this week.  Such a fun little project.  I have no purpose for this fish at the moment but I do love an underwater theme.  I love working with bright colours as well as blues and greens.  I am sure I will find a fun home for this fish eventually.   I am excited to start adding beads and sequins but there is more embroidery to be done first.  Plus, that tail needs some work.  I think I have some funky yarn that will work nicely.  Oh, how I love to embellish!

LeeAnna  and the gang are discussing do you like amusement parks? which one is your favorite? Do you like rides or shows better? I have enjoyed amusement parks over the years.  It has been more than 20 years since I last went to one!  I guess that means that I have outgrown them.  I no longer care for rides but do enjoy the shows.  It makes more sense to just go to a show!  I guess I would go to one if my grandkids were going.  The closest one is Wonderland and that is about an hour's drive.   I like that my ideas for a book for my grandson are finally starting to come together.  I have been playing with a number of different ideas that just weren't working.  Finally, I have landed on something!  That feels good.  This book will be done with mixed media rather than textile art.  Textile art is a slow process which I enjoy but I have three more grandchildren to write books for after this one!  I gotta keep this mo...
