Oops... a little more time has passed than I intended.
I think mostly because time is just flowing past for me right now...
Last night I had dinner with Hazel and we talked about how 15 minutes is a manageable time for making.
This is my latest stitch book page (blue fabric from Jude, yellow is marigold dyed).
Something like this is easy to work on a little bit at a time.
Strangely enough, so is this (still in progress).
I have been taking a class from Christina Romeo (Carla Sonheim Presents). It is a process that lends itself easily to 15 minutes or so and is lots of fun.
Both of these projects are also great for larger periods of time when everything settles into place and it's easy to be in the moment making.
This all has me thinking about making/art as a process of healing and mending our own frayed edges.
There are signs of spring in the garden, this also brings joy.
As of this month I have been blogging for 19 years. I am pretty sure that I have it in me to keep going.
Writing and sharing with others is different than writing for yourself in a journal.
Keep noticing the joy in the world.
