After our morning walk on this
beautifully cool Summer morning,
I grabbed my coffee and took
out my Kathy Schmitz project:
"Gathered Blessings"--
and began to stitch the redwork with
the Bee Skeep block.
I am
trying to get my stitches back
in shape-- ;((((
it's been so long since
I've done embroidery that they are
a bit on the wonky side...
Since I finished hand quilting
my Moon Garden Stars I have
no other hand quilting project
on hand..
And so....
In the spirit of keeping myself
centered and calm, I decided
to do a bit of this calming
redwork....
***********************
Also...
I have done a bit of work on my
Boho Gypsy Caravan--
here is the back of the front cover
↓↓↓
A lovely hammock for lazing among the pillows
and gazing out at the stars....
And below:
Here is the first prompt:
"Where would you
most like to be"
↧↧↧↧
As always, at the beach at
sunset would be my choice...
definitely "La Dolce Vita" for me....
;))))
And I did a bit of work on the back
cover, too:
a lot of embellishments--
a sewn ribbon ruffle dotted
with flat-back pearls, leafy vines
on the sides,
And....
↴↴↴↴
Sign postings for future journeys (L);
and my fellow traveler leading
his horse on the way ahead
of our Caravan....
I thought the fabric, in the middle section,
looked a lot like a waterfall...
with rocks on the sides...
What fun ideas these images spark...
I am feeling my way on this
Caravan project....
adding more pages
and
waiting for more inspiration
to come to me...
I hope you are having a glorious
Saturday
i will be sitting,
Sloth-style
on our deck lounge chair and
watching the puffy clouds sail by....
Hugs, Julierose
