Oh my : May !

Our days are good ...
But when you look back
you often wonder where they went !

So enjoy each and every day !

New small items are emerging
out of tiny scraps :
new textile jewels.

"the circle of water"

Though they are not very big
6 x 10 cm  (2.5 x 4 ")
they take a lot of time,
deciding every little step in the process :
deciding which scraps go best with each other,
choosing threads to stitch with,
finding the right beads to go with the tiny symbols,
using this or that way to hang these
textile pendants.

"happy colours" about halfway

"mother Earth nurtures"
(nearly there)

"blue heaven"
(a lot more thinking and stitching needed)
*

And the garden ..... ?



just goes on and on and on ...

  4. Wunderschön, was Du da machst, liebe Els.
    Beim ersten Schmuckstück, dem Wasserkreislauf, gefallen mir vor allem diese leuchtend roten Akzente. Aber am allerschönsten guckt diese fröhliche kleine Katze aus dem blauen Himmel.
    Herzliche Grüße
    Heidi
