Spirit Cloth

Hunker Down but Let your Mind Wander

The bird box, rescued from a fallen tree that was cut up this week.

Hung it here because there was a nail.  Digitally doodled a circle of green around the hole, just to see before I paint it on. 

A circle of Green came to mind.  A circle of green.

Washed. Dried in the sun. Stacked, topped with an apple. Because. Wine in a green bottle. 

Then, ok. I had snatched this back from the shop the other day. Because I kept liking it so much. Especially for the circle that imperfection revealed. Maybe only I like those kinds of things. 

I acted on a thought. Not what I envisioned. But OK.

I think there is enough green for what I had envisioned as well. Maybe for the other side. I am going to stitch this down. I will talk about it after looking for a while.

even warmer

The Wandering, as warmer weather continues.

The trees here are weavers...that stirs something in me.

And the rocks are like icebergs, I wonder how deep they go.

Since we came here, Soul-O is an indoor cat. He is so much more engaged. He often jumps up where I have just been working. 

Keeping it warm until I return with a new cup of tea. He needs more attention. Maybe he likes absorbing the warmth of my touch that lingers on the cloth.  Attention is a kind of warmth, maybe that's what the need is based on.

A little circle work this morning. Stuff to say, but not ready.

Just The Basket Keeper. And how the basket seems deep as a well.

Once upon a House

So it is happening.

In no easy way, but unless the deal falls through, we have sold the house.

Before we have a place to go.

My life is in pieces.

Today I played a bit with photos, because at the moment, no time for cloth.  But it is the same isn't it? Design Mending.  Making it look like it feels. How it is for you. Trying to share that?

Feeling it, some sort of altered reality. I'm going to need a lot of thread to keep the pieces together. But I have a lot of thread.

Part 2 of Patchwork in Perspective will begin with me as a loose patch. Shall I go for it?  Or cancel it?

Straying and Staying

The Stray Component.

Is like a character in a story.

Wandering Here and There...

And then Eventually, Home.

I've divided my 2019 workshop into NINE segments.

Loose Patches is one of them.  Because a story has characters.

I've a bit of a mystery virus but I will release per-registration info soon.
