The Wedding Quilt (made before I was documenting such things) is wearing thin. It was a thin summer cloth to begin with. Only 2 layers, the patched top and a flannel sheet backing. No batting. It accepts mending so well.
The old Square Patch was almost worn Away.
The new Patch is a Circle.
Mismatched, Perhaps.
Useful though, then...Beautiful and Crazy wHole.
Puzzle Solved. Square Peg. Round hole. Yes we can.
A Harvest Moon Patch then. Because Time Passes. We learn. Reap what we sow.
Sew. Ha!
The walls here are filled with pin holes.
From tacking up my work. For about 15 years now.
That's lot of looking.
I cannot take these walls with me.
? What if I can?
I took a photo, printed it out, tore off a loose patch. Just to show you. Imagine a wall paper pattern like this? Oh ha, folks wanting to have walls all smooth and plastered and painted, imagine papering your walls with imperfection? Way more cool to me.
The circles are hand drawn.
I always like them better that way. In this way I become the compass. And the way reflects how centered I am. It took me years to be able to explain that in so few words. How fragile balance is.
I started this way back. I've been less inclined to check exactly when. Instead I am just going from where I am now. I dream of dyeing this at one point. But who knows where I will be then.
They are all becoming baskets. Eventually. The larger cloths.
