Using Stitching and Crochet for the Repetition Challenge

Days 59 and 60 of my daily art challenge

BB Bash suggested that we could use hand stitching to demonstrate repetition. I’ve been using hand and machine stitching in my art for awhile. The hand stitching on this black card stock was very loose.

The crocheted hat is a continued repetition of half double crochet stitches.

Axe Throwing in Guelph

Kevin and I met at the University of Guelph and every once in awhile we like to take a drive, visit family and check out new venues. This trip we decided to check out the axe throwing place, Axe Riot. We’ve only done axe throwing one other time in the east end of Toronto.

After a quick refresher lesson we spent close to an hour throwing axes at a wooden bull’s eye target. There are many benefits to axe throwing. It strengthens your core, arms, shoulders and back. It improves your concentration, patience and hand and eye coordination. Plus it’s fun to get out and play with people in a social setting. If you’ve never tried it I would recommend that you get a group of friends together and find a local axe throwing venue.
