This weeks contribution to the "Rainbow" .............. some detatched chain stitch. The hand stitching is such a struggle. I'm not entirely happy with it and the rhythm of the needle dancing in and out of the fabric is lost now that I'm having to use a magnifying glass. This is so disappointing and I'm really not sure how to progress from here ..........
The beginnings of a bag being stitched at 1am this morning - something to satisfy my rainbow thing of the moment? I don't think I even like it now
What to do? Join a postcard challenge! I am really looking forward to thinking these out and hope to work on one tomorrow.

Maybe your inner critic is being too harsh. Your projects look wonderful. Keep creating...
Oh no, don't kill rainbow! At least, put her in a drawer until your mind is not taken up with calculations for the blue square quilt project (sorry, forget it's proper name)
Wow, I think your stitching is fantastic!!!! You can do it:)

..well I like the rainbow!....
...try putting some complementary colours on each strip...with a bit of embroidery too.....
It'll zing then :-)
Great blog, Shelley -- my thanks for leaving such a nice comment on my last post!

Have you tried laying out the blue project on the floor? You can get a reasonably long view of it then, and that might help with checking the tone balance.
