Usually, long cloth. I call them that.
Somehow this one seems Tall. Almost 11" as it turns out.
I had to get a new phone and the camera is super duper but for some reason I can't seem to get good or consistent pictures. I was grumbling until I just decided in every moment things look different anyway, and that was enough for me to move on. Of course I only slept 3 hours last night so everything is a bit off in my head anyway.
I love looking at small cloth in the context of larger cloth. How they can always become one thing in the moment.
Be like a Tree in April seems like a good name.
All your cloth seems larger than it is
scale is tricky
Love the reaching tree 🧡
A happy tall tree sheltering a kitty from the raindrops
raindrops keep falling on my head.
Need a new phone, dragging feel. He wanted a TV, didn’t sleep then either. Wired! Ha! Read the notes, red, wht , black, yel, gr. Inspired! 🤔😉
it’s a color chart from long ago…
My first thought was that Tall and Tree just go together…which had me thinking of the lovely book “Some Things Go Together” by Charlotte Zolotow (of course, haha)

So in honor of Spring and your tree (by me 🙂):
“Spring with Ding
Step with zing
Tall with tree
And you with me!”
PS I like this version much, much better than the newer version with a different illustrator. I love Karen Gundersheimer’s artwork. It is so charming. But, this is just me, others may have a different viewpoint.
That was a pick-me-up!
How your tree is so many things at once is great.
I fell out of bed last night- got tangled in the blankets, took them with me to the floor. Thought about just staying down there.
It’s been a while since I did that.
This has everything it needs! Including a “kitten up a tree!”
Ha!
haha
Love this thank you
Thank for loving this…
Your cloths always have good stories. I look at them and see the grown up story yet there is always a child part in me that feels like i see a fairytale in them too.
Spring has sprung and i am on all fours most of the day which helps me to sleep like a rock all night. I am thankful for that! Wishing you a good nights sleep tonight.
I will dream in fairytale mode…
All the deciduous trees are leafing out here…new growth. 🙂
Yeah, almost here…
We got power back late last night. It helped ease our busy bodies and worried minds and we finally slept a bit better; that helps. Too much snow/rain/disruption.
Love the tree. So much motion and connection in living elements.
I know I worry even when there is nothing to worry about…
I’ve gotten used to very little sleep that I’d think I must be dead if I got over 4hrs of sleep 😁
I like your Be like a tree tall cloth!
yeah, it only gets to me now and then, I am used to it too.
The thought I had looking at your tall cloth is how often I count on aspects of the natural world as my companions. When I’m out there with them, they don’t have faces as they do on your cloth, but there is certainly a presence to each of them. Then to see your faces, I can’t really describe how it translates. Thank you, Jude.
yes, I understand the companion thing and often want to return the favor.
Be Like a Tree in April. I want to be in that stitching…I can smell the fresh, Spring Rain!
April can be so full of so many things here.
oh those crazy almost sleepless nights…
Too many, draining me.
the tree in April is lovely and moody, but my eye is on your background cloth! Such a good idea, adding bits here and there as you come across them. I may “need” to do something like that instead of wiffing them into a big basket and having them lost amongst all the other wee bits.
I need to talk about that process more…
