Illustrator Friday - Stitch & Review
Illustrator Friday has a challenge every week. This week is Stitch. I think this looks like fabric with stitching on it. I hope you enjoy it! Illustrator Friday is a fun challenge with many, many participants. The type of art is very wide ranging and I have run into a couple of children’s entries too. I have also found a couple of wonderful bloggers this way! You might want to check it out and look at some entries. There is a “link viewer” that makes that easier.

Stitch
A stitch in time saves nine
Many little stitches together
Can create Beauty
Stitching is what Art
Women were allowed
For Centuries
Stitch - one little stitch
Creates the whole.
Les from My Radical Blogs does reviews of blogs to see how they function and are written. His tag line is “Rant Raves and Blog Reviews by the radical blogger.” This is the link to his blog. He gives reviews based on a 10 point system. The reviews this week ranged from 8 to 9.5. My review was rated at 9. From his feedback (and I think he is correct) I put the subscription form and rss feeds back closer to the top - for your convenience!
He thought my writing is interesting and the art superb! He made some other sidebar suggestions that I am not going to take for now because I like it the way it is. But he has put an idea in my head and I will consider it. It was nice, he thinks anyone interested in art should visit regularly. You can see my review right here. Thank you, Les!

Wonderful, Diane! Feels like quilt piece — one of those ones where I’m looking at it thinking, how in the world did they get the stitches to match up so perfectly
Miracles!!

Good for you to get such a great review and I like the stitch art. It’s totally different than what we have seen here before. Coming here is always a pleasant surprise.

Well done on such a great review. Blogs can be a big commitment so even better when you do one well! and you do ofcourse!
I like your stitches work and your comments with regards to women and history. I wrote an article about this once (quilting)and it was a big part of the social and creative lives as well as a means of contributing a physical item to the family. Nice work.

This is simply amazing. I really like it - sorry for the cliches, but here I am trying to just express my big smile.
