365 Days of Stitches

Participating in a year-long project. An accretion of stitches on a cloth. A few marks in thread every day. I have no outcome in mind.  I chose to use a piece of a vintage tablecloth - one that was so sun-bleached the original blue designs are just ghostly suggestions of blue here and there. I tea-dyed it briefly. It has areas of fragility.

I began this challenge two days before Jan 1. I began with the cloth in a hoop and worked on it for eleven days before discarding the hoop. It was cumbersome and stitching was not pleasurable. Liberated from the hoop, I am much happier and satisfied as I work.

The accretion so far:
