FUNdementals of Organization

Today, I'm trying a checked fabric, using the fabric itself as a grid for goofing around with some stitching ideas.

I like the idea of using the grid lines to give some organization to the piece, but also to draw attention to stitching that doesn't fall within the lines.

Perhaps another parable?: Be organized to an extent, but remember how essential it is to keep doing stuff that's unpredictable, unconventional, and fun.


















Here's the stitching area where I relax and play.

As you can see, I really do make some disorganized messes. But at least I can cover it all up, do something regular...like cook...and then return to plunder through my threads and stash once again.
