| Sunrise Mizrach WIP |
I’m working on another piece in the Tambour stitch style. I haven’t completed the finishing work on the pomegranate challah cover yet, but I hate that part so I’m stalling. Really what I’m excited about right now are these great project cards for floss organization! I love that I can write the numbers directly on them and there’s even a magnet for the needle. I think this is the most organized and untangled my floss has ever been on a project! This is actually a design I could almost replicate and now I have a good record of what floss I used.
Oh, and a Mizrach is a wall-hanging intended to go on the east wall. Traditionally it’s to remind Jews of which way Jerusalem is when they pray, but for me it’s really about the sun and remembering that it will rise again in the morning no matter what today has been like.

Usually it’s fear related. I’m so afraid of making a mistake and ruining a piece that’s taken months of work to complete. [...]
