Only one week to go!

 #57 Over dyed kimono silk scraps

 #61 Stenciled tea bag, stem stitch

#63 Assemblage of dried paint, plastic star and metal shaving

I'm glad I've finally used some of the odd things that I pick up and keep, sometimes I just wonder what I was thinking keeping them for so long.

Weekly Stitching: Signs of Life, The Five Universal Shapes

Week #10

The first 10 weeks

Starting next week I'll be doing something a little different, all five shapes on one long strip instead of five individual pieces.

2017 daily Stitching days 59-65

  Started filling in a part of the background.

This is the section of the ten inch square that I've done since the beginning of the year, the stitched area is about six inches square.

I covered a couple of notebooks and a binder this week.

The red/orange set is being used for an on line class I'm taking, to keep materials together and to write in.

The black and white one has a zippered pouch to hold pencils, etc. I've always failed at keeping a sketchbook in the past so this is a test. Instead of calling it sketching, I'm just going to make marks. I'm always attracted to black and white art work and have been perusing Pinterest looking at mark making. Hopefully it will become a new daily practice. I have some big travels coming up and plan on bringing it with.

I'll be linking up with "Off the Wall Friday" and "Slow Sunday Stitching"
