Spirit Cloth

Just a Bee on the Indigo

No, a forest yellow jacket 

Yesterday...as October passes.

Time for a large cloth review. Where am I ?

Can I just continue? No video here for now, but I might manage audio. Next challenge then.

October

 

A bit like these tomatoes, that's how I feel.

The ones that struggle between seasons. Trying to hold on and let go at the same time. It's getting cold and I picked everything down below in the raised bed, so I can let go of the stress about critters and just let them roam and graze and ready themselves for winter. I will just watch.  There is still stuff growing up on the deck planters.

Japanese Indigo setting seed. We'll make it they said.

I did some dyeing yesterday, but I'll save it. Trouble loading photos today so I will leave it for another day. It's crisp and clear and I will mend the sweaters. The moths have been busy.

 

Well, Hey

9AM here.

10AM...quilting with coffee and thinking.

10:30 AM, the late indigo is struggling to set seed, a good chance of first frost looms.

I wonder if I have enough light inside for it to continue? I want skylights, more windows. But I need to get the chimney fixed. Grow lights maybe? 

So ok, comments show if I use my phone browser for now. Plans to make some changes, but for now, just going. Dealing with it. My struggles seem small really. Summer Bitch is fading, Winter Bitch is waiting. It's a renewable resource.

Just Today

Wednesday, probably that's all I could say.

Except fabric bits seem to be carried on the wind here.

And I woke late. And I am posting late.

Late starts here but things are growing. It warmed up again.

Indigo, planted late, in a pot, could bring it inside and let it continue if needed.

And the green quilt start. Still working on Heal, but thinking about this one now. Calling it Grow.

Growing requires courage too. Where's that basket of red?

I threw my back out of wack, so slower.

I put a note up on grace's place. They have been evacuated. The fires are unreal. We hope all is well.
