Marie, Winter Angel.

Hello everybody !

What a delight to be here with you all !

I'm working in the third raw on my Angel, and I'm stitching her wing's feathers. I'm looking forward to see her flying...

Here is my progress :


Fall is my best season, and everytime I look outside at the trees with all the wonderful colors, I see colors of floss... I'm really addicted I think....!!

I wish you all a great week, with a lot of happiness...

Marie.

Hello everybody !


I was waiting for this for a long time...
I have finished the second raw !!

I want to let you know that I was daily thinking of you all. It motived me and gave me faith. And I was so excited to show you my work !

During stitching this raw, I realized how much I'm sharing a very special relation with my Angel. She means so much for me...


I'm so enthusiastic to begin a new raw ! The journey goes on !!

Thank you all for beeing in this wonderful blog, and in my thoughts....

Marie.

(At the beginning of my post, you can see first my work with the second raw, and the second picture is a focus on the fountain which is on the right. Thank you !)

Hello everybody !

My Angel finally begins to get a right wing... It is only an embryo for the moment, but I think that she will soon be able to take flight.

Here is my work :



I wanted to present you something else... This week, I received a parcel from Willmar...
In fact, I ordered the book called "A Year in Stitches". The cover of each one is unique, and here is mine :



The two angels are so cute, and it particularly affects my heart.
It is so delightful to look at every work inside... I wish to be in the next one... so I must go to stitching...!!!!!!

I hope that everybody will have a nice week, and Joke.... HAPPY HOLIDAY IN FRANCE !!!

Sincerely,

Marie.

Hello everybody !


As you already know it, my work is growing very slowly at the moment. My progress of the week is really tiny. But, it is still and even more important for me to post and show you my work. Because that is the best way for me to hold on, and nevertheless, a stitch is a stitch !
You can not imagine how much I'm glad to be a part of this blog, specially now...
Thank you all for cheering me up.



I wish you all a very nice week,

Marie.

Hello all my stitching friends !


For two weeks, my work is experiencing a serious slowing down beyond my control. I try to be patient with myself and the circumstances. In fact, I know that every big project is susceptible of having moments a little bit harder in its accomplishment. That puts Faith to the test...


Faith, Hope, Motivation and of course Will. This is certainly the undeniable cocktail to bring a journey to a successful conclusion. So, as soon as I can, I will do all my best to cultivate each of these ingredients... The only way for answering at my Winter Angel's call is to hold on. So will I do.




With all my tender thoughts for all of you,

Marie.

I wish you all a fabulous, a great and a very very happy stitching week... !

Hello everybody !

Hello Friends !

I hope that the past week was rich and productive for everyone.
Concerning me, I finished the page 4. It's always a fantastic feeling and a great excitation when a page is on the point of beeing completed ! Now I step back a little bit, and I think that my work is really growing. It's so important to take the time to appreciate our progress. That's why, sometimes, I'm just standing in front of my Winter Angel, and I look at this rose garden. Then I realize how glad I feel...

I can see the end of the first raw becoming softly reality...
It's incredible how much I'm enjoying this journey ! Every time I take my needle, it's an escape.
And, everytime I'm stitching, the logical of the picture reveals itself suddenly, like an expected secret finally whispered by the thread and the needle.


Here is my work :

Week after week, I love to share this fabulous trip with you all. After coming here, my eyes are always full of stars...

Thank you all, thank you so much.

Happy stitching !!!

Hello everyone !

Here is my work !


Before :

Now :
I just want to share one feeling I had many times this past week.
I was thinking "if only I had finished the first raw"... In fact, I was really looking forward to finish the first raw, I don't know why... meaby to see the rose garden growing, or just for the satisfaction of a finished raw... but until it happens, I have some work to do yet...
So I tried to canalize my impatience with this sentence from Lao Tsu who said : "A good traveller has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving". This still helps me to take advantage of my HAED journey... I think that we must savour every stitch we do... because it's a priceless wonderful adventure.

To everyone, have a beautiful week...
I'm still thinking of each one of you,
Thank you so much.... !

Hello everyone !

I can't believe that one week has just passed... How time flies !

I finally managed to finish my page 3. After that, I wanted to tickle the sky from the pages 4 and 5 with my needle... So, as you can see it on the pictures, that is what I did ! And if you look somewhere on the right, you will find a little thing... Have a look... You see ? Yes... a pretty little star, shy but luminous.

Before :


After :

I'm often thinking how I used to feel orphan in my passion before I found this place.

You are all precious to me.

Winter Angel

Good evening everyone,

In my last post, I told you that I was in a cloudy moment in my life...

What can be better than flowers for recovering the smile ?... So, it is with my needle that I went gathering the happiness of a smile.
Because the birth of a bud gives me still twice as much delight.
Because I'm still filled with wonder with the blossoming of a flower, and a simple leaf is already enough for me to feel satisfied.

That is how and why I continued to work on my page 3, as you can see it on the pictures :

Last week :
Now :


To finish my post, I want to thank you so much for your comments last week. You made my heart feel warmer. I also want you to know how much I feel proud and glad to be a part of this community. Coming here is for me like going for a walk. But when I'm not on the blog, I'm still thinking of you, very often. The feelings, the pains, the journeys, the joy of each one... By all these shared things, I'm always with you, by words on the blog, or by thoughts in my days.

"Nobody said it was easy"
Coldplay, "The Scientist".

But it's worth so much...and when you want a rainbow, you must accept the rain, isn't it ?...

To you all, thank you for cheering me up.

Happy stitching !

Hello everyone !

I hope that you all had a nice week and that the sun is shining in your heart.
I must say that I'm in a cloudy and dark moment in my life. I'm a little bit out of words, forgive me... I tried to manage some work nevertheless, it's not a lot, but I hope that I will come back to my work as soon as I can.

This is last week :
The work of this week :

To everyone, have a nice week.
And, of course, happy Easter..!

Winter Angel : the rose garden

Good evening everyone !

Have I ever told you how this blog astounds me every day ?...
Have I ever told you how you all are giving me faith and strength every day ?...
This blog is a wonderful place. When I come here, it is like a bench. I sit down on a lovely bench and I let my mind flying... I'm in a place where amazement and magic are kings.
This is an enchantment, every day.

My motivation stays intact thanks to this blog, thanks to the fire that everyone keeps going, thanks to this core of life.


This week, I finished the page 2 (except 3 points because I miss the color for the moment). And then, I continued to nibble the page 3...
As you can see it, I'm still in the rose garden, the hardest part I think. Sometimes, I feel like beeing in a row boat...and I'm rowing, I'm rowing... I see nothing coming out except a mess of colors... but I continue to row...and then... I can see something ...meaby the shore...yes ! And finally I berth !
Colors become buds and leaves, and the magic of stitching has, one more time, astonished me.

This is last week :


And this is now :


I wish you all an amazing and happy stitching week !
Thank you, thank you and... thank you.

Marie.

Escape




Good evening everybody !


To tell the truth, everyday life has not been very simple this last week.
Sometimes, worries can sully your mind.

Fortunately.... she was here... my Winter Angel... still waiting for me. Usually, she needs me for making her growing. But, this week, it was me who needed her. In fact, stitching is for me the most perfect outlet that I know.

Imagine your needle as a key. Imagine your piece or chart as a door. You sit down, you begin to stitch, and then, you cross the doorstep. You just jump in an other world. Worries don't have any place here. Only concentration and pleasure... Time stops its running, and finally, your mind is just flying somewhere else !
This is how I achieved to get over some trouble this week. Thanks to her, my Winter Angel, and of course....thanks to you all. Because you are still cheering me up. And this is the most beautiful escape.

Here is my work... As you can see, I completed the moon and then I focused on the sky.

Last week :

Today :


I really, really enjoy sharing my work and feelings about stitching with you all.
You all are so nice and sweet, I thank you so much.

Happy stitching to everyone !!
