There are pieces at the edges Floating. They have been waiting To be stitched into place. Life’s assemblage Calls for a single stone dropped To ripple out to meet them. #slowstitch #meditation #selfcare #stessrelief #gostitchsomething #stitcheveryday #4x4 #creativehealingarts #handembroidery #visualprayer #artistjournal #mindfulness #embroidery #embroideryinstaguild #stitchtherapy #creativelifehappylife #needleandthread #theartofslowliving #stitchersofinstagram #embroiderersofinstagram #livecreatively #liveauthentic #needlearts #stitchmeditation #contemporaryembroidery #fibrearts #fiberarts

It’s hard to see the changes from afar. The dye seeps, Rather, bleeds. Stains. It’s at these edges of subtlety that I chose to start. Up close. Chose close up. Only one letter different. #slowstitch #meditation #selfcare #stessrelief #gostitchsomething #stitcheveryday #4x4 #creativehealingarts #handembroidery #visualprayer #artistjournal #mindfulness #embroidery #embroideryinstaguild #stitchtherapy #creativelifehappylife #needleandthread #theartofslowliving #stitchersofinstagram #embroiderersofinstagram #livecreatively #liveauthentic #needlearts #stitchmeditation #contemporaryembroidery #fibrearts #fiberarts

What darkness slithers out from beneath Monet’s lilies, Troubling the still and flowering pond? The Mud Man emerges yet again Destroying the beauty of which I’m so fond. #slowstitch #meditation #selfcare #stessrelief #gostitchsomething #stitcheveryday #4x4 #creativehealingarts #handembroidery #visualprayer #artistjournal #mindfulness #embroidery #embroideryinstaguild #stitchtherapy #creativelifehappylife #needleandthread #theartofslowliving #stitchersofinstagram #embroiderersofinstagram #livecreatively #liveauthentic #needlearts #stitchmeditation #contemporaryembroidery #fibrearts #fiberarts

“Mend my life”, they all said. And I tried but the hole was too big. I let the needle dance instead The contrasting thread pulling apart the fibres To reveal the tear. “That’s where the light gets in. “ With gratitude to Mary Oliver and Leonard Cohen comes today’s poem from stitching. #slowstitch #meditation #selfcare #stessrelief #gostitchsomething #stitcheveryday #4x4 #creativehealingarts #handembroidery #visualprayer #artistjournal #mindfulness #embroidery #embroideryinstaguild #stitchtherapy #creativelifehappylife #needleandthread #theartofslowliving #stitchersofinstagram #embroiderersofinstagram #livecreatively #liveauthentic #needlearts #stitchmeditation #contemporaryembroidery #fibrearts #fiberarts

Look in Past the frame. What do you see? Keep looking further in. Or do you only feel mitred Into a corner? Always in a box? There is freedom in the darkness. #slowstitch #meditation #selfcare #stessrelief #gostitchsomething #stitcheveryday #4x4 #creativehealingarts #handembroidery #visualprayer #artistjournal #mindfulness #embroidery #embroideryinstaguild #stitchtherapy #creativelifehappylife #needleandthread #theartofslowliving #stitchersofinstagram #embroiderersofinstagram #livecreatively #liveauthentic #needlearts #stitchmeditation #contemporaryembroidery #fibrearts #fiberarts

The colour of each day drips into the flow. The river of my life sometimes a stream, sometimes rapids. One day the colour will bleed. Is this what they call death? #slowstitch #meditation #selfcare #stessrelief #gostitchsomething #stitcheveryday #4x4 #creativehealingarts #handembroidery #visualprayer #artistjournal #mindfulness #embroidery #embroideryinstaguild #stitchtherapy #creativelifehappylife #needleandthread #theartofslowliving #stitchersofinstagram #embroiderersofinstagram #livecreatively #liveauthentic #needlearts #stitchmeditation #contemporaryembroidery #fibrearts #fiberarts
