I've been listening to a book about joy- circles & color play a big role. Love the rainbow of rays, how they're moving & touching, & what's happening with the round medallion center right. So much movement- a spirit storm.

A Circle
The circle always forms. Visible or not. There is so much not new about this one, still, I have never seen it before. Things are crazy, but I will make an introductory post for Part 2/Patchwork in Perspective in a few days.
Accepting has always felt like giving up the fight, but maybe some of it is realizing there isn't one?
I was surprised at how little red cloth I have...

In an effort to stretch...red. Red makes me think of Mom, and the importance of kindness. Always one for bright colors, it was her favorite during the 70's. There was a night when all of us kids and Dad were sitting in the living room... Mom came in wearing a big smile and striking...
Red also makes me think of you & cheeriness! 108

For sure, I had a blue cotton zip up jumpsuit that I thought was the bomb!

holding memory
Yesterday I found these two lead fishing weights from Dad. It was last August, during a last minute detour to visit him, that I asked for them, thinking they might be good to use when setting hand spun yarn. (Getting back to spinning is on that list, too.) He was in good spirits,...
Dana, how you put things...thank you! I do love the weight of these, and have been carrying them around now and then.

Yesterday was my last day at school. Transitions always find me kind of lost, wandering through rooms wondering what to do with myself. There was a little stitching with these squares (Five of them are scraps from Jude, including the sweet purple moon, and Deb's thread is holding t...
So much floating going on...

The Art of Going
Is confusion not knowing? Or is it a softness that comes to protect you from knowing. A cloud to rest in. I don't think there is any better way to teach but by example. That is how we teach ourselves. If we are lucky, it doesn't take too much time to realize that knowing is an obstacle to that...
True, all the things we didn't know!

I remember the warnings...
The compass would be cool, I hope you ask. These were the smallest he had, there were bigger ones, although he only trolled in a small boat, so I'm sure your's were much bigger. 110

Still helping out. I liked that my dad could fix/rig-up anything.

Having something tangible is nice.

You've got me thinking that we're all just basted into the moments. And your confusions are terrific seeds for thinkings.

How it Seems
Maybe it's the reality of uprooting... that has me reconsidering change as simply shift... The thread that runs though it is a place-keeping device. Solstice, Cloth, past and present, now future...like season, still has a sense of home in it. I took the cloth of solstice past off the wall, r...

His question shifted things for me yesterday.
I just heard of them for the first time, myself.

Whoosh Revisited
Hello. Again. The only picture I thought to take... I stitched a bit on a cloth after returning home. Home? Mostly because I was too tired to sleep. You know. Right now I am considering pillow. I need a place to rest. Some of the velvet from Mom's wedding dress is patched into this one. A s...
What a great photo. So much cloth! It must have been wonderful to be wrapped in velvet.

Mom. In a pool of Silk Velvet. The cloth mentioned in yesterday's cloth. 1949 I think... And that cloth from yesterday, now in the context of Summer's arrival. How much season is part of us.
It's been 29 years for me, and I never intended to be a teacher! You're right on all counts, I think.

Thanks so much, Joanne. Things feel wide open, and hopefully another opportunity to be with kids will come.

Ha, it's true, sometimes I think I've had a lifetime of putzing!
There are many reasons for going, being at the edge of burn-out was one of them, but I will really miss the kids, trusting another way of being with them will come.
