March Moon over Putnam Valley
Yesterday's moon was simply spectacular.
A little long cloth
This morning I added a backing layer to this PathWork. CobbleCloth from yesterday, and I really wanted to do a video and talk, but the wind was so high, we were on a bit of an alert. And I just cobbled between trips outside to secure things that kept blowing away or over. Expecting the power to go down but it didn't.
Simple. Again. I think I get that from my mother and I love her for that.
There are so many ways to patch/hold things together. I guess I was really simply going to say that. I feel a lightness about everything. Even darkness. I like that. simpler
sprung
And the garlic's up. A gift from my botanist brother out in Idaho, several varieties from his garden to mine. They say deer don't like garlic much. We'll see.
I pulled a name from the Basket for yesterday's shop game. If it's you, you should receive an email soon enough. Thanks, as always, for playing!

Patch of floral and the emergence of spring is lovely
It is so gentle, that patch.
I love these little beasts…they do amazing things!
I love when things are simple. Some how I experience strength in things that are simple.
Yes, it focuses my energy
the moon revolving around us, as we revolve around the sun is comforting to me. a night light. listening to you describe your process is one of my favorite things in life. and then reading what other ragmates have to say. very cozy. x
I like to talk through it without a plan.
I’ve pretty much said the same thing on occasion. I wish I could be more… but simple suits me. I have learned so much about cloth from you.
That’s so nice to hear.
Such a gorgeous moon photo! Love the fabric, perfect for this house – now…how it speaks of spring, like it was just burried in the fabrics all of these years waiting to bloom! And the sun-moon, love that. xo
That floral has a long history, I like the story you have given to it.
The moons! And the beauty and comfort of simple.
Resting in it today.
A big idea, so simple.
Sometimes, it’s the “play”, the doodling, that brings us the most easy joy.
No agenda, just easy fun.
I love that.
maybe joy is simpler than imagined.
Flow, we need it…
I know yours never stay simple! I feel like your thoughts and stories lead us on unexpected paths, and leave us with others that we can explore. And, I love your moons. One of my favorite things in the world is to wake in the night surrounded by moonshine.
I’m trying to stop at simple, we’ll see.
Just went back to listen to the story of the little long cloth….simply too much fun to hear how, where and why you had the cobble stones to build it….niiiice….❣️
I guess patches are like cobblestones…
moonglow … so ethereal whether it be captured in a photo or in a dye pot …
we just can’t escape it’s magic.
Moon photo looks like a painting 💙
I stayed outside for a long time watching. The wind was tossing the clouds…
Simplicity is perfect in your little long cloth ….it’s beautiful. I love your style of work and piecing.
In my younger years I was a nanny and in the large grounds of the estate where I would walk with the pram there was woodland all around and wild garlic grew in abundance…it was lovely a nice memory for me today when you mentioned growing some, I hope its successful.
I grew garlic last year in a raised bed on the deck, this year I have planted it everywhere!
Thanks for sharing how you cobbled this one together. I love hearing the fabric history and your thought process. I don’t do much cobbling but maybe I will… And since I have been doing more dyeing than stitching, I like to hear that too. How you use the dyes so eloquently. And that green “hug”…. ❤️. Moonrise is always a little mysterious.
I often overlook the simple parts of composition. and I think as the warmer weather moves in I will just sit on the porch and talk my way through a few things in more detail. real time.
I have yet to figure out how to get decent pictures of the sky, let alone the moon. My camera doesn’t capture it like my eye does.
I just shoot and hope for the best, this was my camera phone.
Double WOW on the moon shot❣️
yeah, lucky to be there.
Wow what a beautiful moon!
I thought I took a video of it rising from the clouds, but I pressed the wrong button!
