Another Embroidered Mandala



I'm still on embroidery mode.
 It's funny, I feel like I've been unfaithful to my journals, my watercolors and to painting...  I can't help it but I am hooked again. 
I laugh because many times people who knew me as an embroiderer would always ask me "are you ever going to embroider again?  I didn't know for sure but didn't think it would happen.
...and here I am!
I think I'm enjoying it so much because I do it with freedom. The freedom I get from not knowing what I'm going to do or what I'm going to make. I don't follow any pattern or a plan.
I just think of colors and color combination, I start stitching and it grows, like this mandala.

For those of you who are more onto journaling I will post some pages next week and will probably be painting a couple of thing I have in mind.

Happy weekend!

PS. Look at my new coral butterflies bucket from Cozy Memories.

    1. Gracias Maria por tu visita. Te confieso que tu, tus muñecas y tu Gineceo me han contagiado la fiebre del bordado ;) Un abrazo colombiano desde Nueva Zelanda!
