The hustle and bustle of yesterday

"BLUE  LAGOON"

Only four more days to find here
a PINK RIBBON Textile Jewel !

day 26 (and an anniversary)

 LATE !

On this very special October day
 there were sooo many things to do
and apart from that
we didn't even have a celebration
what we normally would have on this anniversary day !

Fixing my hair (oh yes, that takes a while)
making a nice dinner for tomorrow for seven (or eight) people
and of course (like a normal Pinktober day)
stitching my textile jewel.
(and taking photo's in very bad light because the clock went back an hour)

For our anniversary I chose a little heart
of felt and silk.

For the jewel I choose brown felt.
When you  mix all the colours on your palette you get brown.

Some might say what a drab colour,

but for me that isn't true at all :

 BROWN 
 is the colour of the earth 
 of skin 
 of soft fur 
 of chocolate and coffee 
 of old leaves that will nourish in spring 
 of a long, quiet and true love 
 brown is nice ! 

I opt for a pendant on a long cord . . .
or should it be a brooch ?
Well, that is for later :
I think that can be decided by the person who buys it !

My PINK  RIBBON  Textile Jewel
for day 26 :

a little felt heart with silk on the backside, pendant or brooch ?
stitched with silk, linen, cotton and rayon
and many seed beads

(4,5cm,  1.8")

For a donation of
(at least)

day 22

What I like about making jewels
is the endless possibilities
in shape, colour and stitch.
Most of the time even I don't know
how it will turn out in the end.
I often spend a lot of time deciding what colour combo
will be the best for that particular felted item.
And yes, more than once stitches are unpicked
and made again in another way !

 Today is the start of the second half of my "Pinktober".

some fabric coils, sequins, pearls and seed beads
