Something Different again!

hey there!
Today's post is a bit different. It started as a doodle drawn directly on fabric (white muslin with a small white flower pattern on it) and then handstitched all in black #5 perle cotton. This was all done today (thursday). it's not as detailed as most of my pen doodles but hey, I knew I'd be stitching all those lines!

I'm pretty excited that I took it from just an idea to a completed project in just one day. I am so impatient that I have to be able to do a project from start to finish in one day.

Well, unless it's a big quilt project and then it can take a couple days to piece the top and then another to machine quilt it but that's another story!

Are you the impatient type or the kind that can start and then let it sit for a couple days and come back to finish?

I'd love to know what you think!

Cheers! SB

I'm the same...When I get an idea there's no stoppin' me! This is so unique! Nice job! You certainly are a barrel of energy! :)

I love to be able to finish a project in one sitting, but if I hit a snag, I have to leave it and come back later with a fresh eye to see what I need to do. I started and finished one yesterday, but started another that has me stumped so I'll go back to it today.

Well that's just really neat! Until I read your post, I thought it was an ink sketch. Great idea!

Cool job :) I am hugely impatient, but I say the kids are teaching me otherwise ;)

What do I think? I think it's a great idea. And your entire blog is great!
