Stray Moments

There was thinking about doodling.

How it is like catching stray moments.

In the context of one's busy life, notes to self on the go. Thread-less crumbs.

Nine of them. On the loose. But not really. Oftentimes the stray things have a direct tie to a heart that is less concerned with who cares.

There will be some traveling (light). Soon. Here and there.  On and off. Small practice journeys. I think stray moments might be a good way to stay in touch, keep thoughts going. Storming. There are scraps of paper everywhere and it is easy to borrow a pen for a bit. So when they show up, these stray moments, when they are here, except for this time...I'm not(but in a way I am). Maybe just in between.

Please note I accidentally deleted a bunch of emails from last week. If you reached out and did not hear back, try again. There are more stray spaces in my brain lately and I am still learning to manage all from this new-fangled phone that seems at times, smarter than me. On the list: master the mobile and keep moving.

Adding big weave to the equation

I have found new space.  In between.

On the right, the Magic Cloth still in progress.  On the left, big kilim form Turkey.  In the middle a space to imagine  some new journey.   Because in this coming year, the year after I became old,   while traveling here and there, I will be cloth whispering, inspired by weave.   Weaving .   Across moons and mind and anything else that crosses my path.  Redefining cloth as I  know it. 

There will be a shop update, if I can manage it, at the end of November.  It's  going to be Very cold  soon and I will be spending a lot of time in this chair.

Which is clothed in a nice old ikat from Indonesia and an old wool weaving from days gone by.  I was thinking sewing chairs might get cold too. We will stay warm together.
