Me, too. I wonder if it's a distraction/procrastination technique? Your soup sounds delicious & your blanket looks so thick and cozy. Are you doing garter stitch with purling for the whole thing?! And wondering how Lola is doing?
simple
It felt good to hold the warm bowl in my hand. (Carrot soup: olive oil, onion, carrots, water, salt, rosemary, thyme) It felt good to work on the blanket, purl, purl, purl, turn, purl on... Sometimes, many times I think, we make things too complicated. At least I do.
Unbelievable, sometimes all of it.

"Moonset" The edge of a napkin dyed by Deb made for a fabulous wave (& her purple cloth, too). So many nightmares- dead bodies, assaults, old jobs. Things are busy, mostly in my head, and computer time is more limited these days. It seems that by the time K. is finished with it,...
Love back! It really has been amazing and full of treasures, including a certain weekend with you! I wonder where my first bird beast is?

My boys would probably call me an overwhelming heart! Thank you Nancy, you and the rest of this circle have kept me centered through so much in the last decade.

Oh, Marti, your way with words makes me feel so much more, thank you.

There is always a big smile on my face when you call me that!

Sending love to you and Lola, hoping you both are taking care. Wishing moments of peace for Widget, so that you have them too! Hope you found the browns you need, if not, send word.
intermission
Between trying to get Lola to eat, distracting Widget (who got put in the bathroom for awhile yesterday) and trying to get some sleep...I am not getting much else done. I'll be back in a few days...
Thank you! I'm starting to think of ferries as good friends.
Making days
There was a tiny bit of practicing of Jude's wrapped bar stitch on the rooftop with Deb's thread (matching her sky cloth above), while remembering the tedious work of trying to do the short and long satin stitch that Grandma used to fill spaces. Jude's method was much more manageable and ...
Quirk is good! And I really like the round fullness of your boats. Will look forward to hearing more about this class, it looked interesting.
second draft
I wrote one post. Sat with it for awhile and then got caught in hmm...where does influence start and stop? So this is a second try. Some drawings from a class I am taking called Sketchbooking with Lewis Rossignol (Carla Sonheim). My "15" for the last two days. I had to remind myself to be no...
She called out her name with the last stitch!

I'm sorry to hear this, Mo. I wonder why?

Oh, no! So sorry, Dee. Sadly, I think that I'm done with overseas sales- just too expensive and stressful.

My mom's sister was Aunt Jean, too! She is a talented seamstress. I was also taught the goal of blending, but often ended up with a mound of thread with my attempts!

I hear you about the eyes and patience! More practice is definitely needed over here, but Jude's was much more meditative than the stressful satin stitch I grew up using.

I started with an "Awww...!" at the photo of Widget, and ended with a laugh out loud over your thoughts about the morning. Good luck up there!
despite the distractions, today's 15
The challenges of making right now continue so the cat chronicles continue as well: She is a wild one and every movement of the hand is an invitation. My hands are a wreck at the moment, despite trying to keep her claws trimmed. This morning she let me fold paper for a book. That's as far ...

Woo-hoo!
Stitching by Snowlight ❄️
This morning's view... It seems I think about bowls and glass a lot. The snow continued off and on until midafternoon. K. measured thirteen inches on the car top. Meanwhile, Blue says they only have a few inches where he is in Michigan. How strange. I remember Michigan snow...
oxo, it's really great to be spending time on this end of the spectrum.

It's might be a little weird & silly how happy these windows and glass things make me!

Thanks, the snow light shining through the window collection was inspiring.

It was Such a beautiful couple of days. Sadly, it's melting here, too. I suppose the fleetingness of it is part of the wonder.

SO bright in the middle of winter was a treat.

There is a lot of gazing that happens here, I love these windows. I wrote about them here https://handstories.typepad.com/blog/2018/05/the-view-to-here-from-there.html
I hope you are ok there! A few of our family members down in Oregon (where they have more ice than snow) have been without power since Friday, hopefully it will be back by tomorrow.
