Spirit Cloth

So Sunny Saturday

I have a very small indigo vat brewing. There is only so much you can fit in the one room you might be heating for the winter.  But it's real warm near the wood stove. So today there is blue sky and blue on cloth.  I have also added Instagram to the left sidebar.  I  did this for a reason that might become apparent later.  Of course some of you have already found me there.  At this point it is just a placeholder.  And curiosity.  No need to follow me there if you are here.

I like this little strip of cloth.  It is nice just like that. I like it because I did weave it myself.  And it's nice because it is the beginning of something.

And I really like THIS.

 

 

Cooler still

With all the lessening going on,  the house has emptied.  But in the process Everything I Love has ended up in the studio.  Staged for  consideration.

Perhaps on a warmer day.  First big fire today.  I am snuggled in stuff, admittedly loving it for now.

I renamed this one.

Considering all things.  This one is stitched on some pomegranate dyed flannel.  Warm in the hand.  There is room for more things, but I am not sure I need them.

A day in the life of the three little bears squares.

Becoming, set free, resting, usefulness. Loved.   A good day.

 

And

One of my favorite weavers.

The little Japanese hand shears were a gift.  Aren't they lovely?  I love them.  I dyed the indigo wool as I went along.  Just enough.  Finger woven.  Very fine wool on a plied cotton indigo dyed warp.  Cozy feel.  More body than the silk warp.

Happy Monday.

Ding.
