* I love to use color in my work, I relate the various hues, tints and shades to my feelings. I may be leaning toward some pink this new year, which represents happiness to me. We'll be exploring color in my new workshop - *Little Books & Instinctual Stitching* at @wayartyonder I'll be bringing lots of fabric to paint and stitch on for my students to incorporate in their work. Come join the fun, camaraderie and joy of creating your own instinctually stitched little book! Workshop date: April 22 & 23 2023 I hope to see you there!

* I carry a book in my bag with a little sewing kit so I can stitch while waiting in lines, surprising how fast a wait for a doctor's appointment will pass as I'm immersed in instinctual stitching. * * I’ll be teaching my new workshop - -Little Books & Instinctual Stitching- at @wayartyonderstudio hosted by @janamfreeman Come join the fun, camaraderie and joy of creating your own instinctually stitched little book!

* For me, instinctual stitching is like finger painting. I remember the joy I felt while exploring the possibilities of painting with my hands. Now I do the same thing with my stitching. The exploratory journey of the needle and thread making it's way through the fabric without a plan or expectation of what it will become is inspiring to me and a profound expression of my artistry. I encourage you to make something if you feel the need, don't worry about whether it's good or not, just do it for you. The enjoyment of working with your hands and watching something come into being, without judgement, is magical. That's what the process is about. * * #instinctualstitching #instinctuallystitched #littlebook #sewnstories #sewingstories #sewingstory #perfectionnotion #handstitched #slowstitch #slowstitching #fabricscraps #fabricpainting #handsewing #threadsketching #threadsketch #paintnstitch #fiberart #textileart #textileartist #textiles #artistlife #artistbook #bookarts #bookart #bookmaker #mixedmediaart #pullofthethread #handsewn #bookmaker #socalartist #beatrizhelton https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck_uxF2yA1T/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

* I have many "irons in the fire," as my Pop used to say. Instead, maybe I should say, I have too many threaded needles on my pincushion. On my table today, a stenciled, painted and stitched piece of muslin atop an abstract painting, I'm still working on em both. It wasn't my intention to pair the two, but the colors look so good together. You can see what the #painting looked like before it became this beautiful sea of colors on @lamytutus Just wanted to let you all know I'm still here. Did anybody notice my absence? 🤔🤓😆😂🤣 * * #instinctualstitching #instinctuallystitched #sewnstories #sewingstories #sewingstory #handstitched #slowstitch #slowstitching #fabricscraps #handsewing #abstractpainting #lamytutus #threadsketching #threadsketch #sketching #paintedfabric #stenciledfabric #stencilgirlproducts #textileart #textileartist #textiles #bookarts #bookart #bookmaker #mixedmediaart #handstitched #handsewn #perfectionnotion #socalartist #beatrizhelton https://www.instagram.com/p/CilmcETOzp2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

* I'm interested in the story revealed on the back of the fabric I'm sewing on, sometimes it can be a little more interesting because it bares the bones to the original story. It's mysterious nature pleases me and is evident that planning and expectation were not part of my process. * * #instinctualstitching #instinctuallystitched #sewnstories #sewingstories #sewingstory #handstitched #slowstitch #slowstitching #fabricscraps #handsewing #teadyedfabric #threadsketching #threadsketch #sketching #teadyed #textileart #textileartist #textiles #bookarts #bookart #bookmaker #mixedmediaart #handstitched #littlebooks #handsewn #handmadejournals #perfectionnotion #bookmaker #socalartist #beatrizhelton https://www.instagram.com/p/ChNZcM2p0jB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
