Falling flowers
Some more daily sketches... that turned out not to be daily, of course.
Some days several... and other days none at all!
I got up at 4:35am (usually do) and had the idea of
falling flowers
Different approaches on the same theme.
I took pictures with my phone(!) and isolated some of the sections that I like best.
Which is your favorite?
Sorry... I'm having real problems with formatting on blogger these days... seems to have a life of it's own now!

Small cloth #1: Stitching done.
Have to say, I didn't think I would have the patience to finish it, but I did! :)
Small Cloth #1: Hand dyed, stamped and stitched

Imperfection
Design concept. © Catherine V. Bainbridge 2013
One of the things that I have always loved about hand-worked repeat patterns, is the way in which the natural irregularities - the imperfections - make a repeat pattern not a repeat pattern anymore.
Even though it still is. And I think that's the quality that appeals so much to me in so many world cloth/stitch traditions.

Pretty small
It's been a while since I stitched anything.
So, I thought, "be kind to yourself... start up again with something small."
HA!

In spite of having an "active" area of just 14 x 8 cms, this little cloth has already swallowed several hours and made my fingers sore.
Currently looking just like a quilt designed for a contemporary doll's house, I'm convinced it wouldn't have taken me that much longer to stitch a full scale version ;)
Thinking small pouches.
