Holiday Mini Cloth - Cornwall

I felt attached to this cloth during my holiday, even when I put it down to go walking in the amazing scenery and along the coastal paths we were connected somehow. Hand to cloth again, feels so good. A perfect weight; satisfying, with the freedom of guilt free time together. 
Hope this is the start of something new, or something old but forgotten? Either way I am content and ready to set this one aside to make room for other cloth connections.

Amazing how much you can get done during a day off work

growing into a long cloth

So the cloth seems to be growing into something - I like where it is taking me and I feel I owe my inspiration to all the blogs I visit these days as well as the cloth itself speaking to me.

Is this a turning into my first long cloth?

the feel of cloth between my fingers again

I have missed the feel of cloth in my hands - the slow meditative needle to cloth - hand to cloth motions of hand stitching.

After watching Jude so much ( and I hope she does another vlog soon) I just had to follow suit and checker with cloth. I have missed the feel of cotton and linen between my fingers and I need to practice my needle work - such a satisifying piece of cloth to work on for me - I know the stitching is far from perfect but I like it none the less; it is for me after all and that's all that matters right now.

stitch practice

Been practicing some decorative hand stitching on small piece of felt. I dont think I have quite got the hang of it yet! Also I think its a bit harder to make straight lines in felt, its much thicker than cotton or linen. Oh well. Practice makes perfect. Hand to needle, needle to cloth.
