Slow Stitching Sunday

 It was a busy week!  I love that my granddaughter has learned to enjoy stitching.  It made our time together productive and enjoyable!


The doll pictured above was created by my granddaughter Juniper.  She is delightfully wonky!  Her fairy wings are slightly askew.   I love the little fangs.  They are a bit hard to see in the photo.  She has a crown, tutu and a wand.  Forgot to get a photo of those.


 This is the wonky doll I created this week.  My DIL thought her legs looked like a jellyfish.  Even more so now that I have added the tutu.  Next, I need to get started on a wonky stuffed unicorn.  They will be illustrating a book for another granddaughter.  Juniper very generously offered me the use of her doll when I do the book!  So sweet!

    How wonderful that your granddaughter enjoys stitching with you. I could never get my daughter interested, but my older granddaughter already loves making things.

November Bead Journal

Hmm, now I am wondering if this piece needs more beads.  I was thinking it is finished.  I don't like to dither but deciding when something is finished can be a challenge for me.  I am not loving this piece at the moment.  I doesn't make me say 'oh wow' but I am not sure what I would add to it.

   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!
