Felt like Stitching ~ this WAS going to be my one word for 2015

I thought I was being quite clever by creating this small felt pillow with my ONE WORD for 2015. And then, part way through creating this, I changed my word! 

Oh well, THRIVE is a fine word...just not my word.

Stay tuned for my word, and the 2015 ONE WORD poster. (See my blog post.)

Here's how I did it: (inspired by those talented Kemshalls over at Design Matters)

  5. I love your stitched felt. That is so funny that you changed your word. I debated and debated between "original" and "design" for my one word; finally settled on original. Now I'm second guessing my choice, thinking it should be design. I probably won't change it, but then again, maybe I will. ;)

  9. Beautiful! Those glamour shots of the finished pillow are excellent! And your tutuorial shots are so great too! No words needed, the pictures tell the whole story. Now I am very curious about the path of thoughts that lead to rejecting this word. And I'm eager to read what word you did choose.

  11. This is SO neat, Jane! Funny that you changed your word half way through...you must have really felt pulled in a new direction. (Haha...wasn't even trying to pun!) Thanks for showing the process photos...though it tempts me to try something similar, and I need to FOCUS! :-)

  13. I have shared your word list with several friends. And just in mentioning it to others they have taken up the practice. My word for the year is serenity...I have learned that having a word really does keep me on track with my goals for the year. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
