Spirit Cloth

a ring, at least today...

might be the memory of a movement. especially as we imagine or remember it.

and there you have it, a ring of Was.

shape is is often the result of continuing. the record of a path in any direction. captured for the moment.

does that make shape a sort of timekeeper?

 could this make the creative act a kind of time travel?  simply the evolving shape of persistence without permanent boundary?

please note, that i often post more than once a day, but from now on i will post diary style. adding to the same post as the day progresses. and so if you are accessing my posts through a reader, you will miss the end of my day.  unless of course i have nothing left to say.  the reason for this is layered but partly because the calendar feature of typepad is currently stupid as all things tend to be (stupid) now and then. let's celebrate that.

Stupid: Slang- excellent; terrific.

which came first?

i don't think it matters.

Flash!

the SEW blog is now password protected. it will be unavailable over the weekend while i do some maintenance.  today, i left the house before letting you know my plans, so i allowed access  temporarily. but now it is closed till Monday.Thanks for your patience..xx

i stitched a ring here today. to define some sort of edge as a result of touching, connecting the stones.

geez. any shape is a ring. right? not limited to a circle.

 forgive me for not visiting blogs much, i am tangled in thread and thought.  it also has come to my attention that i deleted a chunk of email accidentally so if i didn't answer you, try again.

extending vision

i like how my eye fills the gaps,  and completes the line of the rings.

looking has an aspect of continuing in it.

persistent focus connects thoughts

 you can see into the future.

 this draws you in.

like an eye.

and i love the simplicity of this.

capturing autumn

today a ring is a sense of season.

place

nice to sit by a fire.

and stitch.

to watch things fall together and not be worrying about anything. to ignore confusion.

to appreciate what happened yesterday, after imagining it beforehand.

to wonder where the camera charger is. to not know.

to not care.

at least not now.

seasonal rings

today, anticipating colder nights, i moved the potted plants off the deck, into the house. the clay pots left rings on the wood. aren't they beautiful?  they sell plastic guards to prevent this from happening. and people buy them.

later, i tried isolating some pomegranate dye inside the ring. on cloth. nice.  change is inspiration. preventing it might inhibit what makes us think.

i also tried filling some rings with marks. thread marks.

this yellow stone now seems like a sun dial. moon dial?

rays. rays are like fringe.
