Embroidery meditation


Sewing and embroidery is very soothing. I've also been making my own velvet flowers. Very very soothing.

  1. I find sewing is like meditating and I agree it is very soothing. I love the braid at the top and the velvet flowers are so cute. I found a gorgeous gypsy bag on the net with instructions on how to make velvet flowers.

  3. I've always called my hand sewing "my therapy". Works great.

    This is a great piece, the velvet flower is fantastic.

  6. Yes true if one can stitch it can be prayerful, though since I am not such the gifted type, stitches only cause me to becoming aware of my frustration ;)AT LEAST I have yours site to soothe me and show me the beauty of such ways!!

  7. I agree with you Colette. I find hand sewing very soothing. There is something lovely about holding fabric in your hand and creating.
    Love the velvet flowers!
