hand stitched

Quiet breathing, and small precious things. I have been knitting at home, and embroidering lately. The cold of fall makes me want to hold warm textiles. A hand stitched leaf that includes a variety of elements... vintage rose montees, glass pearl navette, tattered lace circles, and a tiny button for doll clothes. Gravitating towards a serene space these days.

As I said, and will repeat - like a dab of perfume! ;)

"..you have to resist that pressure to buy all tools, master all techniques. you could spend a life making things simply out of wire with nothing but pliers, or just shaping clay, or with needle and thread or even stringing pretty beads. each element of the universe has the entire universe inside it somehow, just like each of our cells has the dna to make a whole other us. so within any one technique is an infinity of possibilities. by falling in love with just one or two, you could be set forever. and it could be as simple as carving beads out of leftover wood you can find for free at the home depot or something. but you have to find what calls to you and allow yourself to fall in love with it." - fancifuldevices
