I did this crazy quilt block in the summer for the  Burlesque Challenge  with San Fransisco School of Needlework and Design.  They now have the all the challenge results posted.  So much interesting work!  Not all of it is to my taste but I think that was to be expected with the topic of this challenge.

Lots of texture going on here.  This is my interpretation of the forest floor.  I have adhered burlap, lace, yarn, paper leaves, and a needle felted leaf.  Oh yes, and paint.  This piece has become quite stiff with all the glue and paint.  I am not sure if I will be able to add any stitching to it.  The plan is for it to become a cover for an altered book I am creating.  I have some leaf shaped beads that I would love to add and will have to give it try.  Hopefully, it isn't too miserable to stitch.

Even though my husband was out of the country on our 32nd anniversary he still made sure that I got roses.  He's a keeper. I am linking to http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com https://mersad-photography.blogspot.com

It feels good to have found a few minutes to add some stitches to this piece.  Choosing the right thread and the right stitch is relaxing.  Not rushing to finish this is also relaxing.  No pressure. I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/

My bead journal does not look significantly different from the last time.  Some of the beading I had added I subsequently picked out as I just didn't like it.  Some beads were added that I like.  It is rather slow going this month.  I am having a hard time imagining that it will be finished by the end of September. My focus has been on creating journals for the studio tour that happens tomorrow.  My Little Golden Book journals are just the cutest! I am linking to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.com/
