I sat with my needlework stand in natural daylight all day as I watched the sky change from cloudy to partly cloudy to sunshine on Sunday. I stopped stitching as the sun was going down, and the light cast shadows on my work.
I think I accomplished quite a bit in about four hours. I felt the rhythm of the needle and thread as we moved across the fabric. I took breaks to stretch, grab a cuppa or a sandwich. I also did a few loads of laundry, too, so I moved around quite a bit.
I'm confident I'll complete my fencing soon. Now that the end is in sight. I'll pull more fabric choices, too, to see if I like something better than the colors I shared last week. Although I keep going to that assortment, I guess I'm really not sold on that as my final choice. We'll see.
I completed my November artist trading cards over the weekend, too. I'll share those with you tomorrow. The theme was "Indigenous", so I'll show you what I came up with thanks to Handsome's input. I'm happy with the way they turned out.
I'm going in for a couple hours to work for my boss this morning, and I have my "see ya later" appointment with my knee surgeon this afternoon. I think I'll just stitch a bit more after I finish all my running around. We'll see. Gotta run now, though. I'll be back manaƱa!


Beautiful!

Just think how rich you'd be if you had a nickel for every stitch you've put into that fencing!

Wow, your stitchwork is beautiful. The light really shows it off. Love it.
ReplyDeleteHi Bev:
DeleteThank you so much! Handsome is a retired commercial/industrial photographer. He's always telling me to make sure I get good cross light on this piece to show the dimension. He's right (again). lol
