Scratched Memory


Another scratched week
when one thing led to another


For Monday stitching the North Mountain seemed like the right thing to do
and
adding that thin string of morning fog
That made me think
of sun rays working their way through those early morning low clouds


Then the plumber's scrim I used for Tuesday's fog
made me think 
of needle weaving.
A paintbrush for Thursday
because I'm taking a course on acrylic painting. 


Then three days of easy stitches 'cos we have visitors
Not much time to stitch
Not much time to think!


But still time to wonder what to do with some
beautiful random dyed cheesecloth.

  4. Lovely to stop by here this morning and see your *scratchings*, Penny. Have had visitors here too....no-thing got done, including thinking! But I'd be stopped dead in my tracks if I had that bit of cheesecloth before me.... ;>}

  6. That cheesecloth is beautiful...I just love the colour, the weave. Makes you want to pick it up and feel it.
    Your scratchings are wonderful. I love the blue needle weaving.
    Looking forward to seeing some painting from your acrylic class.

  7. I would put plenty of stitches on that cheescloth, I am sure that you will too, sooner or later.

  8. I don't know if I've mentioned this before but I do love the term 'scratchings'! Your cheesecloth has lots of possibilities - the colours are scrumptious.
