My Band Sampler 181 – Details 994 to 995 – Taking Control January 13th, 2010

Taking Control

Taking Control has 2 meanings…It had been some time since I had done any stitching for which there was 2 reasons…

The first reason was that life was distracting me but I didn’t mind because I was getting a lot of good things done and felt as if I was taking control of my life.

The second reason was the black background which is much harder to design onto and thus requires more thought and takes longer but that alone wouldn’t have stopped me because I really love what I have stitched on the black background…What was stopping me is that black is difficult to stitch onto at the best of times and when you have to ware glasses it is even harder and that was stopping me from stitching, what to do, take control, cut off the rest of the black, replace it with cream and start stitching again.

The second detail is a Celtic design from a book that Sharon lent me when I was doing the designs from the covers of Cadfael novels…I altered it to fit the space I had and used it as a warm up exercise while I thought about what I wanted to stitch next…

    I love the Celtic design. I will have to investigate some on the internet and see what I can find to add to some CQ. I’m hoping looking through all your postings will motivate me to stitch again. =)
