Slow Stitching Sunday






 I have been slow stitching scrolls for years.  I love the way they look in my baskets.  I have thought that I would like to display them so that all the work can be seen.  My middle son helped me with an idea for that.  I plan to submit it to an art call.  

  I am working on scroll number 21 right now.  It is a strip of an old bed sheet that I have stamped.  I am now stitching into the stamp designs.  I may even finish it today!

    That basket of scrolls is a piece of work in itself.
    You could use the scrolls as a calendar. Select a January scroll to display on the wall and place the basket with February - December rolled up like beautiful roses or scrumptious buns in front of it.
    I think an attractive studio will always have work-in-progress, tools and materials scattered around in a creative way.
    Looking forward the idea you have worked out together with your son.

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 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!

 I haven't counted, but I must have created at least 100 of these flowers.  None of them is the same.  Such fun!  I am always in awe of people's creativity.  Maybe I should take a moment to be in awe of my own creativity! Creativity is one of the great blessings of my life.  I am so grateful that I have the time enjoy making things.   The weather looks a bit iffy this afternoon.  If it cooperates, I will be doing some stitching on my deck in the sunshine!
