Sunday morning I played around with new stones thinking they were going to be grey but perhaps because it is the bleak mid-winter the stones turned a warmer colour. This piece is inspired by Mark's paintings of stones disappearing under water. He is brilliant at that. For both of us scenes like this bring up whisperings of summers spent on beautiful Georgean Bay. For those of you in Toronto don't forget The Artist Project at the Better Living Centre February 21-14, 2019 Mark Berens will be at Booth 506. Strips of plant dyed fabrics soon to become rocks. By Sunday evening I was happily couching away. I have based the background onto an old blanket and it is like stitching butter. The one thing about this kind of stitching is it allows for mind wandering and as I stitched these delicious rusts and browns my mind whispered memories of my beautiful Rusty Pups They are dearly missed As are their antics and adventures. And then as I prepared this post A photo demanded to be noticed So much like my new stones. I have a teacher who always says the piece you start next should always be informed by the last piece you did. Perhaps this means my next piece will have to be seaweed in the colours of my Georgean Bay stones. But I already have soooo many new beginnings just started! But my mind is flowing with ideas on how to go about a seaweed piece. It is so easy to have many ideas isn't it The days just aren't long enough for their execution! I hope you have a day rich in creative ideas.

The Coneflower kit is here! Also known as Echinacea, this kit features 3 daisy-like blooms, each in slightly different pastel colors. The natural red clay linen background sets off the soft, dirty pastels of this Summer flowering plant beautifully. The kit includes a linen background to work on, and for the coneflowers and leaves we’ve included a fabulous selection of textured, hand-dyed vintage & reclaimed fabrics, linens and, (as always!) a selection of beautiful Liberty London Tana Lawn prints. The Coneflower Kit is filled with soft, gentle and earthy colors with embroidery threads to lift the colors and textures even further. You supply sharp scissors, a marking pen, and a glue stick or fabric glue. Each Wattle&Loop Slow-Stitching Kit combines a carefully curated selection of beautiful vintage and reclaimed textiles, along with some Liberty of London fabric, DMC cotton threads & an embroidery needle. By combining the beautiful textile pieces with slow-stitching & appliqué you can make a truly beautiful textile collage of your own that is completely unique -- while they are similar, no two kits contain exactly the same pieces of fabric! Beginners will be able to manage this kit with some patience and an interest in learning some new stitches and techniques. You can simply learn as you go. Depending on your level of experience, each kit takes between 5-12 hours to complete.
