Taking time to stitch

Relaxing in stitching and the feel of wool fibers is therapeutic. Sometimes, just being able to put 2 pieces together in a basic running stitch soothes me into a rhythm of repetitive movement and calm. Layer upon layer adds to the unwinding of creativity.

Pieces that were cut and planned change into other directions as the embroidery unfolds on their layers. The details of vintage buttons and special stitches giving them character. This piece is angora and cashmere.
