Slow stitching



It has been quiet here. Hubby drowses on the couch, healing slowly. I putter around trying to make sense of my vast pile of To-Dos. Yesterday I spent the larger part of the day setting up the new shop and starting to list but in the evening I turned to my cloth.
This cloth has brought me much solace. The slow regular stitching bringing comfort and peace in this time of much distress. When I look at it, it calms me.


I have been wanting to work with these methods for awhile. I love the crisp regularity of tiny pieced squares (not added yet, I will post a pic with these soon), the lovely patterns and texture created with the kantha stitching and the bold contrast of the wrapped pieces.

Hope you are all having a peaceful and creative weekend <3
