There was an X in the morning. I like how it was a marking nothing in a way. Just letting the light through.
There was an X in the afternoon. This is where the stump from the big tree pulled out of the ground. We had it ground down so we could expand the garden. I noticed the shadows from the branches above seemed to mark the spot very clearly in the afternoon sun.
Later in the day, I stitched one. An X. It was on my mind. That simple mark. Two lines paired in such a centering way. Just a little X. I am sure it will come in handy eventually. There are always spots to be marked.
I seem to have wound down. Not in a shop mood at all. The holidays make me dizzy. So, I think that's it for now. An X or two over a glass (or two) of good red wine. No big plans or news for the rest of the year. Just letting it go. Like it does.
