The Manitoulin Circle Project meets every Thursday in Little Current United Church hall. We've been doing this since October 2009. Please feel welcome to drop in and stitch a while.

thank goodness rules are meant o be broken, bent and ignored :)i can't imagine this one with the things you "missed"!
Judy, take a look at your images again. Yes, there is line (the stitched line). Yes, there is colour (very subtle, but I see it). So there! =)
Of COURSE there is color! It's just a subtle palette but it is FAR from monotone.
And of course there is contrast--it's just a narrow range, and much of the contrast comes from texture.
I thought yes to all the principles too. It's just beautiful.
Wow, how time flies! It has been such a pleasure watching from afar...it would have been even better to be able to drop in and stitch on these beautiful pieces of art.
i see lots of color, seams are lines,
and movement is really brought into the imagination by rhythm and repetition. no?
