Slow Stitching Sunday

 

I have felt the need to play with very bright and vibrant colours of late.  This mandala I made a few years ago but it was calling to me again.  I have been loading it up with stitches to add texture.  I realize these brights aren't everyone's taste.  Since I am making it for me, I am not about to worry about what other people like or don't like.  Playing in this field of colour makes me happy!

    We make our projects to make ourselves happy. This is not about making others happy. Great bright colour scheme. Gail at the cozy quilter

    Playing with bright fabrics makes me happy, too.And, if there are colourful stitches and embellishments added, all the better.

    The best results are usually obtained when we work on the spur of the moment. When we feel like playing around with bright colours, we are confident, we enjoy the process, we find the right way, and the result is usually stunning. Then comes a time when we need soft or dull colours to reach the best of our ability.
    Enjoy the process!

   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 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 have these napkins, threads and fibres to give away.  All you have to do is leave a comment on this post.  I will draw a winner on February 1.  I would love it if you became a follower too but that is not a requirement.   http://vicki-2bagsfull.blogspot.ca     This is the link to Vicki's blog to find more participating blogs!
