Circling the drain?

 Over the weekend I did some more circle stitching for the latest landscape.  I'm eyeing my ball of thread and wondering if I have enough.  Time will tell!



- You might like to scroll through all the patterns found HERE (thanks to Jocelyn for the heads up on this one)

- Although we haven't tried THIS (yet!) I thought I'd share in case any of you would like to.

- Some of you might find THIS process of interest.

- You'd best pour yourself a cuppa (or even make a whole pot!) before you peruse the offerings found HERE.

- And, last but certainly not least, you might want to look into playing along with THIS  (thanks Lyn for the heads up)

    1. For some reason doing the circles seemed to suit the theme of the quote that's on that piece of fabric.

  2. Love your circling around stitching on this one--the concentric centers really add so much lovely texture...nice work in progress--

    1. I hope you get the rain you need! As for the circles, they've proven to be fun to work on so I'm happy I went in that direction.

  3. I haven't been able to read the quotation on the fabric, but I like very much your circle stitching.

    Sherryofcreateology: Your hand stitched circles on the rusted fabrics is really looking great. I’ll crow my fingers you don’t run out of thread. That Zen retreat looks amazing however I never have the time to just sit and watch videos or work on more projects. Super quote…forwards and backwards! Happy Week Dear…

    1. I did sign up for the retreat because there were several workshops I think will be of interest, at least to me. Ended up registering for the VIP access, just so I can watch the videos at my leisure.

  5. Your stitching on the landscape is coming along nicely. Is that a river running through?

    God bless.

    1. Yes, it's a river....all will become clear as I put the next area onto it (at least I hope it will!)
