Here's my September TIF journal page on lists, all done, early for a change!
I stitched my chain of lists in a random order and intertwined them a bit when I stitched them to the background. The binding loops are more selvedge strips.
The top and bottom edges are "finished" edges of selvedge strips. I left the sides unfinished. I was going to bind them and then I realized, lists are never done, they're never finished, so I left the sides unfinished.
There's more description of the selvedge background in my previous posting.
It's certainly colorful, a bit raggedy feeling and uncharacteristic for me and to get myself back to my comfort zone I added a plain backing of tan felt, attached with buttonhole stitch in red perle cotton. I wrote the title with a Sharpie. I can now check this off of my to-do list!
Clever idea. It is fun to see the different ways our minds work to meet this challenge.
ReplyDeleteI really like this one! It's not beautiful, but it really captures the way I feel if I'm so far behind I need to make lists: chaotic and tied up, with no peace or place to rest. That's how I feel if I try to work a rotation "list."

very,very clever interpretation. i think the randomness and the loopsgives it a lot of movement
