Inspire August 2014 BJP


August 2014 BJP

Inspire

Inspire was motivated by the work we are doing to our front yard.  We will have possession of our home one year this coming October.  We've completely remodeled the inside and officially moved in in March of 2014. The front yard had been a project that was put on the list of things to do, but had very low priority.  This project is now front and center!  It is very exciting to see the project coming along.  

The colors of Inspire represent happy colors for me.  Our front door is a muted pumpkin spice color.  There will be a fragrant garden around a small courtyard near the front door.  I am hoping we will attract a lot of butterflies!

         
The time piece is movable and symbolizes steady movement and consistency leading to success.  The edging is a ruffle stitch.

 
 I really like the blue with the and green french knots and fringe stitch around his corner of the piece.  The orange squares are like stepping stones surrounding the piece.

It has been a lot of fun learning how the beads tell the story and lay the way they will.  Working within the story of the beads takes patience, doesn't allow for force and allows me to 'feel' the piece I'm working on.

We will bring this piece home next Saturday.

I hope you've enjoyed this months journal project!
