Stitch Journal Day #19

I am a late joiner to the idea of a Stitch Journal and the process is what I like the most.

The freedom of creativity is different from all the others.


I find it meditative.


Like today I was out on the back porch enjoying a cup of coffee when out in the pasture came a deer slowly moving through the high grass. We figure she must have a fawn near by because of the way she was acting, slow and cautious.


What I never expected was to see the smallest fawn I've ever seen. For a brief time the fawn was in a spot of short grass and you could see that it barely came up to the mother's belly. Very awkward and unsteady at walking, so we knew it was born within the last 24 hrs.

Just so precious. I was so in the moment never thought to take a picture.


But that is what I put on my stitch journal, the fawn.
Found floss that had the colors of the fawn, brown with light color for the spots


       This is my representation of the fawn.



Which is now day #19

Seeing how I started on the 1st of May and not January 1.
It's mine to start whenever.  

Been a good day.

Linking up with Kathy

    How special to see a deer and her tiny fawn near your home. Your Stitch Journal sounds as if it is going to be fabulous. It looks lovely thus far.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

OK back to topic here.  A couple of years ago while at the Dallas Quilt show I purchased this pincushion.   I thought it was interesting but what I really wanted was the pattern. It came from a shop in Texas,...
