Its getting scary how fast time goes ... at least time stops flying by when I stop and stitch - to me its like tuning yourself inward and zooming in on the fabric , thread and needle going in and out ... another form of meditation.
I had two glorious days meeting with like minds this week end: Sticthers Plus on Saturday and MAPS on Sunday. You can have a peek here to see what was happening in show and tell at Stitchers Plus. MAPS was a bit of talk fest and planning day for a coming exhibition in 2012.
In the interim it is count down for the Embroiderers' Guild members' exhibition which takes place at the end of the month. And then Stitchers Plus is having a retrospective exhibition at the Embroiderers' Guild HQ in Concord West in August. I am working on completing some of those nearly done pieces that have been languishing in the work box.
In the meantime I have been plugging away at a small canvas design using a motif from a tiled veranda floor at Yarralla House in Concord.
But when I look at the photo I realise that I have mixed up the two flowers motifs - I have an eight petalled flower with rounded edges I guess I had the rose garden in mind too - I have run with yellow and pink flowers - the tiles started the thought and the thought morphed.
