Here are my first 3 weeks of the Calendar of Life [COL].
My DH likes this one a lot :))))
↓↓↓↓
All the butterflies in our dingle was the inspiration for this one...
And I like this one,
plus I really enjoyed stitching it...
Driving by the marshes inspired this one...
And below is the cycle of our days...
they move in the same way, but all of them
have a different
color or feel to them....
*****************************************
Something about Autumn urges me to
get things sorted.....before
winter sets in every year...
SO......
I am still trying to sort out
my paper crafting items
and my fabrics.
I also am
organizing all my
threads and needles,
pens and pencils--etc, etc--
all garnered through so many
years of stitching, glueing and
quilting....
As a result, my room looks
like a whirlwind
🌀🌀🌀
hit it...
&&&&
Every surface is covered with
stuff waiting to be either discarded,
donated or stored for future use...
In Other Words:
ONE BIG MESS!!!!
So, the only constant is my
Daily stitching on my COL....
I hope you are enjoying our brief respite
from the heat and humidity here...
Hugs, Julierose

ReplyDeleteI am in a sorting mood these days too. And my hand stitching time has been set aside but I will get back to it. I love seeing all your little stitch pictures.
ReplyDeleteThe CAL is beautiful, I love how you incorporate bits of fabric and truly make the tiny blocks reflect your days. ///Weather--I am actually feeling chilled right now, must look for some long sleeve tees. 80* tomorrow so I won't look too hard.
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying seeing your progress and reading your inspiration behind each one too. Fun project!
ReplyDeleteSo many decisions when re-organizing.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the middle of a organising mess, too! In my case it is my walk-in-wardrobe. Why does tidying have to go through a "huge mess" stage before you get to the "tidy" stage, I wonder?
ReplyDeleteIt is so much fun to see your addition to you CAL. I love how the teeny scrap of fabric was transformed into a butterfly and those cattails are magnificent. It sounds like you are staying busy organizing. Have you found any projects that you want to start working on again? Have a wonderful rest of the week. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI can see why he likes this one! It is so fun to look at all the individual squares and I'm sure each brings a fond memory.
ReplyDeleteCalendar of Life – wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI’m thrilled.
It holds many beautiful memories for you, yet anyone else can keep discovering new things in it, too.
It’s a fantastic project... have fun stitching. I look forward to seeing how it progresses :-)))
Sending you a hug.

I finally got an update! I love your CAL. It's so fun to see what ideas you come up with! The humidity is back. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteThat piece is really growing, Julierose. It is fascinating. I like sorting and cleaning during autumn as well. Not that any of that has happened yet LOL.
ReplyDeleteLook at those cattails! I love them. We are headed home today, and I'm ready to get started on my CAL, too. Yours has many beautiful details, Julierose!
