\u201cRain taps on the window, autumn rain,

And so it went on the whole week. So I decided to bring a little colour into these grey days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made a mini mandala. The diameter is 61 cm, quilted on a black background with colourful embroidery threads from Isacord and Mozart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pattern was given to me by TAMSAMTAM. It\u2019s gorgeous \u2014 just like all her mandala designs.<\/p>\n\n\n

It was drawn by Tatyana Putyatina.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

This time I limited the colour palette to two shades of blue and pink. I admit it \u2014 these are my favourite colours. The next mandala will be in different colours. I think there will be several, because when I look at the long\u2011term weather forecast, I see nothing but rain. It makes me despair a little \u2014 I definitely didn\u2019t get enough sunshine this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quilting, as always, was great fun.<\/p>\n\n\n

Except when I had to unpick. Then it wasn\u2019t quite so fun. My husband couldn\u2019t believe I had made a mistake and was actually unpicking. He had to take a photo \u2014 and enjoyed it immensely. He also made me promise to write about it on the blog, so here it is.<\/p>\n\n\n

Once upon a time, having to unpick something would throw me into deep despair. Now I smile (sometimes through tears) and simply do it.<\/p>\n\n\n

The mandala is finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used 15 colours and stitched the needle into the fabric 417,980 times.<\/p>\n\n\n
