Again the sun rises

Softly it Dings, after a bit of rain.

like Mom's pastels...

a meeting placeI cleaned the bird boxes and found some sweet evidence of connection. Thread.allowing form to emerge

I really wasn't happy with how visible these dots were, so filling in the spaces occurred to me. I am Splitting Hairs.  This time I asked myself, (?) what if I try  some subtle shading.  These cabins might make nice basket liners.  And now looking as this Small Cloth here, I have some other ideas.

Some ideas for the future of the Forever Zone are forming. (and the shop is on vacation)  I have received a lot of email inquiries.  Please give me a bit more time to settle a few things...

I am working on a new community page.

    Bird weaving beauty dearest Jude .. your share with local wildlife is a Cherry 🍒 on the ‘cake of magic you bake as cloth whisperer.

    Simply Lovely! Stitched expressions.
    Nature never ceases to show how we all interact with one another.
    You have offered a gift unknowingly and have received acknowledgement of acceptance .. like us the birds thank you!

  3. I love the laciness of the blue stitches, and seeing the nest- it’s like a gathering of stories. Chopped some inches off of my hair this week and put it out for the birds, hope it’s useful.

    Yes! It has come together so beautifully. I love the symmetry.
    I have a coconut fiber hanging basket liner. Blue jays pull the fibers out for their nests. Birds are so creative building houses. Mom had a hummingbird nest in the rose bush under her window that was lined with rose petals. Lucky birdies.

      Nests are amazing constructions, so much story. Some bird was pulling at the fringe on a carpet I washed and hung on the rail…

    this looks really good. i love what birds do with foraged fiber. i once found a mouse nest in a shrub stem. built with abaca paper pulp i’d dumped from some failed work. it had bleached beautifully white in the winter sun. looked just like a weird birds’ nest, but it wasn’t.

      yes, I just love finding a bit of my work here and there… I’ve been composting old scrap now and then, I dig them up with the potatoes…

    Love the way the blue stitching softens the dots and seems to connect the outside with the inside so much more! So beautiful.
