Thank you for this Great newsletter Jude. Happy that Soul-O is back to himself, and exploring his Garden again 🥰
Love being part of the thread nest Ragmate mountain.
Will follow where you go…got Substack when you went there before.

Love you. I’m not well, listening to your voice calmed me down. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I always wish you well and hope you continue to find beauty.
I totally enjoyed this newsletter. So thought provoking.
Change can be so hard; decision making, alone, difficult.
Life is a continum of change, for sure.
And your response is one of good mental health!
I am so annoyed when people comment on how strong I am. My response is “What are the choices?” You do what you have to do… and end up finding joy in it, and maybe even finding out you are even more of a person than you ever considered you were!
Blessings to you as you meet life’s challenges. They never end.
G is for gratitude 🙏 and all of the giving you share with us.
Your name and techniques have definitely been mentioned more on other channels, with respect.
But sometimes too much growth isn’t a good thing, sometimes we need to clear the path to take the next step.
What you provide is Gorgeous, your stitching, your words, how it all comes together.
G is also for Going your own way, if shutting off the youtube channel feels right, then do so. We will always be here, joining you on your adventure, and will find you and the Joy you bring.
G is also for giving, back to yourself, first and foremost, then keeping the things that are gentle, and meaningful just for those who will keep following.
G is for Going nowhere, where you go we will follow.

Oh and, those garlic chive flowers also make an excellent salad topping (if you aren’t saving them all for seed)
I’ve been growing them for over 25 years …they are prolific, tough and utterly wonderful!💚
Considering using my thread nest for a simple whole cloth quilt, before it becomes an impossible thread knot.
The word Going always makes me think of you. You are so Good at it, doing it with Grace, and Giving along the way.
So filled with love listening to all this. Especially touched by the threadnest reference to the ragmates. Enlarging your picture makes it look like a mountain. Garlic chives do great in a pot. I bring mine in over the winter and put it outside again in the summer. Always have have fresh. Thank you for always finding a will and a way to continue.
I love the swirling stitch design on the nine patch!
So happy to hear the quilt is bringing you some comfort, and you’ve brightened my mood today!😊

Therapy for you. So much therapy for me over the years. Classes and discussions. Working on a balance now of finishing things I started years ago and making time to start something brand new. Even then incorporating the old lessons.
You lead and we will follow. Certainly, there is so many new ways and avenues available over the past years. Everything you share is precious and
we are thankful for your teaching and your unselfish sharing while we
learn.
Gorgeous. All around! Your tree stump looks like a giant butterfly! Your cloth weaving promises…The red and grey quilt is stunning! Soul-o, dear cat, looks like a shadow in the Woods!
Goodness, gracious. Gee and Golly. That’s a lot of glorious Ggggggigling.
Working my way through the collection but had to say I love the photo of Soul-o, so small in the giant woods.

Yeah, I gotta see if I remember how to post there, ha!
I really like this format!
September feels like the proper beginning of the year to me.
yes, I feel that too. It is refreshing. Maybe it’s the beauty in letting go.
Love you. I’m not well, listening to your voice calmed me down. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I always wish you well and hope you continue to find beauty.
Sending wishes for what ever you need
❤️
hope all is well

I like that Going Nowhere, there is no there there anyway
Oh and, those garlic chive flowers also make an excellent salad topping (if you aren’t saving them all for seed)
I’ve been growing them for over 25 years …they are prolific, tough and utterly wonderful!💚
oh, I will have to try.
They are my new favorite ingredient. They just do keep coming. And nothing bothers them.
Gosh.
Giving–
Giving Love.
You give, we give, it goes
(round & round)
So grateful for this Gathering.
💚
Giving is so much bigger than it seems.
(((💕)))
G could be for Glide…Gliding seems like a nice way to go, especially when things feel rough, just Glide right over ’em.
I like that. I need to learn how to ski!

Thread knot, oh ha!
I love all of it so I am actually giving to myself.

Your stitching is amazing!
Thank you Jude!
G is for gentle too. 🙂
Holding that one…
Hi Jude …gathering kindling ? Suddenly I can’t think of anything else I would rather do. Fortunately I have memories to suffice.

I am thankful for the “thread”.

I could never leave that New England wall…
I have to say I will miss that wall.
Goodness, gracious. Gee and Golly. That’s a lot of glorious Ggggggigling.
Working my way through the collection but had to say I love the photo of Soul-o, so small in the giant woods.
Yeah, he’s an outside boy…loves the big outdoors.
