In the red tray is the beginnings of my December journal made from old Christmas cards and papers.
Day 19 - I added the paper cutting - cracked egg. (only non textile session)
Day 20 - the bee was my pattern for the one on the fabric collage below.
Day 21 - we sewed embellished words.
Day 22 - we did a bit of weaving.
Day 23 - back to paper but I did add some threads to represent the tangled mess Jesus sets us free from.
Day 24 - Inspired by our church talk about the significance of the "corner" of a garment, I made my own. (see below)
Day 25 & Day 26 - Using up more paper scraps/pictures but I did add some of my dyed fabric scraps.
- Identity - 1 Samuel 24:5
- Marriage Proposal - Ruth 3:9 asking for protection & provision from guardian redeemer.
- Covenant - Ezekiel 16:8
- Tassels - Numbers 15:38-39 visual reminder of God's commands
- Healing - Mark 6:56 all who touched the edge of his cloak were healed. Also our main reference of the woman with the issue of bleeding found in Matthew 9:21, Mark 5:25-34 & Luke 8:43-48...
My back is improving slowly but now I have an issue with a sore mouth as well. Had an ulcer (lower right) and that healed, then thought I'd burnt the roof of my mouth (top left) but it isn't healing so seeing an Advanced Nurse Practitioner at my GPs this morning....
Happy WOYWW Everyone.
My dear do you have time to sleep, you always manage to get so much done. That sounds nasty, hope your mouth is better soon but pleased you have less pain with your back. Sending gentle hugs. Have a good woyww. Hugs Angela x10x
ReplyDeleteFabulous pages. Did you see the Art Journal Advent challenge? Another fun one I think. Might jump in, IDK. Life is a bit crazy. Hope your mouth heals quick. What an annoyance!
ReplyDeleteOff knitting AGAIN on WOYWW day!

I am always amazed at the amount of work you do. This post is full of loveliness and it looks as if the retreat was well worth attending.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your mouth, difficult to find something to put on it as you would with a burn on, say, the arm. Good job we have these ANP's, I find them better than doctors to talk to.
Hugs, Neet 1 xx
Hope the surgery is able to help , the mouth sounds painful . Love the colours in your projects this week .
ReplyDeleteI zoomed in on your textile work and am glad I did, there’s so much detail in there and each piece is so different. I liked them all but especially the tree with sashiko, fabulous!

Fabulous pages, all very interesting, lovely work. Sorry to hear about your mouth, hope you can get some treatment and it heals quickly. Hugs Angela #13
ReplyDeleteI am in awe of all your projects BJ. Love what you created just using fabric in your stash too. Happy belated WOYWW. Sarah
ReplyDeleteOh BJ your textile pieces made my heart sing! I can think of several folks who would love to spend time together working on pieces like that - Jan, Annie! If you want any bits and bobs for needle felting let me know. I could put together a little pack of fibres, yarns etc.- maybe what Tilly calls her Inspiration packs.😀
