Slow Stitching Sunday


 I haven't posted about this blue butterfly for a while.  I have added beads and silk ribbon embroidery.  It is getting closer to being finished.  I just noticed the wing on the left looks a bit off.  I need to correct that.  I did the same thing on my orange butterfly and have fixed that one.  It must have been the pattern I used.

I am not sure if I will get much stitching done on it today.  We will be getting our Christmas tree this afternoon.  We used to go to a Christmas tree farm and cut down our tree.  The price for that is now too high.  We will buy our tree from the Scouts, the same troupe my hubby belonged to.

    I like this butterfly. I don't see the problem with the wing, but we are critical of our own work. We get a real tree also, but will need to wait a week or so as our children will not be visiting until the week after Christmas. I want the grandkids to see it.

    That is so pretty, Angela! I loved zooming in and looking at it up close. Have fun getting your Christmas tree today!

    A live butterfly, in flight, is rightly 'a bit off', a dead one in a collection and displayed with a pin, is perfectly even. I think your butterfly is alive and well!

   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...

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!

Mandala Monday

 Often, when I create a loose and free mandala, I don't like it.  They are fun to create and that should be enough.  I am happy to say that this loose mandala is one that I do like.  It is truly a mixed media piece.  I used transfer foil, paint, crayon and markers.  So fun!
