100 Days of Stitch Meditations 2025- #93-100/100- Last ones!!!

 I did it! 100 stitch meditations in 100 days! Doing the happy dance. I stitched the last one June 2, but I'm behind in posting, because I started doing the Sketchbook Revival Binge Fest 2025, which was free for two weeks, and I've been busy getting in all the free classes I could before it ends.

Anyway, here is the last batch for a while! Taking a bit of a break...


#93-Recycled fabric and lace, charm, perle cotton thread


#94-newspaper print cotton scrap, text scrap from old blouse, lace from my old top, perle cotton thread


#95-Text cotton base, a piece of my grandmother's drawn work from an old favorite pillowcase, red and feather scraps, red cotton crochet thread


#96-Recycled scraps from other projects, words on cotton fabric, embroidery from a curtain I got in a basket at a flea market, perle cotton thread

#97-Pansy fabric from one of my old blouses, scraps from other projects, perle cotton thread


#98-Recycled scrap from a wedding gown I got for five dollars at Goodwill, lace from my old blouse, scrap from another project, perle cotton thread


#99-Scraps from other projects, text print from my old blouse, angel charm, which says, "angels watching over me", perle cotton thread


#100-Recycled scraps, trim from my stash, elephant charms, perle cotton thread

And here they are! All 100 stacked neatly together! I wish I had room to spread them out like a quilt, because they look so pretty side by side in my photo file.

I'm so proud of myself, because I usually get sidetracked by a new project, or I get bored, in the middle of a project and stop on it, intending to go back and finish it some other time. But this time I didn't. I completed 100 days of sketching and stitching challenges so far this year. I may not be able to afford a blog book for this year, because I already have soooo many pictures and posts!

So now I'm going to focus on art classes for a while and let the stitch meditations rest, but after I take a break I want to work more, and possibly finish, the three fabric books and fabric roll I started a while back.

All of the stitching, sketching, and posting are taking a toll on the tear in my rotator cuff and my eyes unfortunately, so I need to let them rest and do something else for a while, like some cleaning. I sit way too much and it's affecting my health, so I need to move around a lot more than I do. Wish me luck. Everything I enjoy doing is sitting down.

Take care and I hope to see you next post! Create something new!
