Doodle Cloth

 I have been working on my art quilt for years now. I take it out and put it away. I keep wondering what I like and what I don't like about it.

I think I was trying to make the quilt say something that it isn't saying.  So I decided to just start stitching on it.

While stitching I realized this is just a huge doodle cloth. Not a doodle cloth to practice stitches, but a cloth that I doodle stitch. 

That thought made me happy.

My Second Try

 I decided to make another leaf. This one is larger and I think the color works better.

The vine in the larger leaf is brown.

I loved making these! I know that I will be making the apple from Inspirations Magazine and making another leaf.

A Peyote Russian Leaf

 

I don't think this one the wrong color for my pear, so I will make another one.

Phoenix Band Sampler

 I pulled this sampler to get a little bit more done.

 Trying to move this project forward.

Messy Theeads

 I'm working on a project with Vikki Clayton silks. She has bags of leftover threads that she sells on her website. I decided to play with them.

I think it will work..

Perf Linen

 Did I show this? I don't think I did. Vikki Clayton of Hand-dyed Fibers has released perf linen. It's 40 count and I can stitch it over one!!! Love it. She is selling teeny tiny hoops so I had to see what I could do with it. Once I finish the stitching on my pear, I will make some more of these charms.
