Pacific Blues art quilt #2 progress Happy Monday!!

Pacific Blues #2, more beading added...

 Close up, beading, button, running and fly stitch.


Last few days I've been adding embroidery to a few of my current projects. I like to keep several things going at the same time, it keeps inspiration flowing. It's a balancing act to keep working through a piece to the finish and holding on to vision for new projects. All the while not loosing your  'voice' or style. That's why art is so great, the artist's particular unique interpretation and statement  of life comes out. That's the 'wow' moment, when you connect to that 'voice' when you see what they are trying to say with their art.
Happy Monday, remember to stop and enjoy something beautiful!

I really like this one! The beads and stitches make such a difference. I know there are people who only work on one thing at a time and finish one thing before starting the next, but I don't understand it.

Your little quilt was so pretty as it was, but the beading and embroidery is just lifting it that little bit higher. Nice!
