my creative space...starting's easy!

No-one could accuse me of not giving things a go! Not starting is not the issue...
It's the finishing that may be slightly problematic...so just consider all of these a work in progress...as they say. After a rather uninspiring attempt at a watercolour earlier this week, I gave it another go...something much simpler this time...it's getting there...
Then there's the granny square rug...the squares are all done...now I just have to sew them together. The first born will get it just in time for summer!! Bet she's thrilled about that!
I've been experimenting with a bit of tapestry (or is it needlepoint)...and what's the difference anyway! You've seen this one before. I have to make it into a little door hanger thingy. The other one will probably end up sewn into something or other...
I think I'm going to frame this one when it's finished. Not sure about the heart but I love the background...I was quite pleased with that.
But this next one...in the very early stages...I do know what this is destined to become! I think it'll be quite swish if it works out the way I want it to...fingers and toes crossed bloggy peeps. 
I may have rather a short attention span I suspect!
There's a whole bunch of creatives over at Kootoyoo.

  6. Your projects are all gorgeous! The tapestries are all lovely, but I LOVE your 'Love' watercolour, Kerry! It looks amazing!! I am so glad you gave watercolours another go, because it turned out brilliantly and I can't wait to see it finished. Hope you have a lovely Thursday ~ Txx

  8. My, Kerry, you have been busy, you creative thing! I adore the watercolour in particular. It's such a tricky medium to use, if not daunting, and that is exceptional. I wish you could share your tips with me. J x

  14. Short attention span maybe, but multi-talented definitely!
    P.S Just a thought - maybe the first born would like a lot more crochet rocks to add to her collection, and then you wouldn't have to sew the granny squares together?
    P.P.S So pleased parcel arrived safely!

  15. Uh, I think my middle name lately is unfinished. I have great ideas, and get them all started and something else just knocks it down to the bottom of my list! I am loving all your needlework. My mother did needlepoint and I have some of her pieces since she has passed. Someday, well lets just say its on my list as well!

  16. Oh my goodness, Kerry....You have so many beautiful projects on the go....I am in awe !! I don't care that they are not quite finished...just to have started them all is admirable in my book. Knowing you, I'm sure that they will all be finished in due course. I wouldn't worry about it. Just bask in the wonderful feeling that you are creating some lovely pieces.
    Have a very creative weekend. XXXX

  17. Dear Kerry, Of all the projects you have on the 'go' at the moment, I think that the ones I like the best have strong graphic elements. The lettering and the abstract needlepoint work are most interesting and could be used in a variety of ways as interior decoration. The graphic designs remind me very much of the work of David Hicks [but he did not do pebble covers, so you have the edge there!]

  18. Hey, sometimes it's the idea of the project that is the most fun. Better to have started and discarded than never to have started at all is my motto.
    Have a great weekend.
