MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

Let there be snowflakes!

 Yes, there's snowflakes - of the kind I like (not the cold wet yucky ones that are outside!).  I'm adding cross stitched/embroidered snowflakes on the border of my latest landscape.  For some reason they needed to be there so who am I to argue?



I'm using waste canvas to do these and no two are alike, just like real snowflakes.

Today's quote..."I feel like my greatest accomplishment today has been not saying what I'm thinking out loud"

      Stitched snowflakes are always the best kind!

    I like the snowflakes- they look good on the border. Some very interesting links too. I like the little Yoda and crocheted socks- very tempting to make. Loove the quote which should be my motto.

      I thought the border just needed to have snowflakes so I went with it. I must admit in these times I am trying very hard to abide by that quote!!

      Thank you Barbara - they're not as pretty as the ones you've been doing though!

      I enjoyed doing some of that sort of stitching because it's been awhile.

    Wait, you posted this two days ago and it just NOW showed up in my feed! Well, bloggerrrrr. I like the snowflake ideas, and yes, no two alike is lovely.
    I'm trying to practice that not saying stuff aloud at the moment. So many foolish comments appearing on social media, and I have to save my energy for other stuff. I may be one of the people making foolish comments, too, if I don't look out.

      Interesting that it took so long - oh well, at least it showed up. I think the whole world could stop and spend some time contemplating that quote and who know it might mean saner heads would prevail.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
