Another snowy morning.
But it's ok, it's spring in my mind now. And it was gone by noon. Same thing tonight and tomorrow. There's a rhythm to it.
It was chilly but I had an extra blanket. 
Almost comfortable with this one. After a lot of Walking Stitch on the corners. I like how it holds the shift...
...the coma effect.
And I was comforted by the simple rhythm of one stitch in front of another.


If I could I would send you some of the blooming flowers and green grass and spring sunshine from the west coast.
Sudden Burst Of Energy-this artwork is pure magic, the beautiful complementary colors, the composition, the flowy feathers, all just like a dream. As I look at is and take it all in, gives me little tingles of joy and happiness, I can feel it’s energy! Absolutely Beautiful!!!
It IS so comforting to do a stitch over and over. I find it is my calming method these days. I was looking at my flower seeds this morning …. just waiting.
Yeah, and holding a few things together is a relief.
Seeds waiting here too
Jude, your bird is fantastic! I love the colors and how the bird swirls around.
Ine not dine this kind of applique in a long time, maybe I will revisit …
Makes me think of fuzzy seed pods, like a burr. 🙂 And also a compass…
Seeds are definitely a bundle of energy .
Compass seemed to lead me to compass-ion.
Your work is medicine for me.
Beautiful medicine💙.
Thank you
That’s a comforting thought, medicine for me…
Love your art. Love your thoughts.
Thank you.
I’m seeing more happy lightness in your work lately. Stitching can be so meditative.
🌞
We had like 3″, but gone by noon here, too. I like A Sudden Burst of Energy, not something I have these days, but maybe someday again. 🙂
I like to imagine.
The weather is a roller-coaster here.
Weee!
It’s as if the feathers are tethered, holding the brightness high in the sky! 🪶☀️🪶
A lovely story
Stunningly beautiful work!! Thanks so much for sharing it.
🤓
I so appreciate seeing your work and the clickable glossary too.
Glad to hear that, thank you for saying!
One stitch in front of the other….
I’m planting tomatoes and sunflower seeds today👩🌾🌻
There’s a rhythm in that too.
Looking forward to that.
… comforted by the simple rhythm …
Thanks for that!
Handy right now.
Adore the chicken. Just fabulous! Eye candy!
That’s an oldie…
Hopeful!
Oh, that chicken!!!! It looks Portuguese! Beautiful stitchery!
And your way-out starburst is gorgeous. Love allll the textures…I feel them in my mind…
I’m surrounded by stitch
Beautiful, it’s like the center is highlighted by sunlight falling through a square skylight
A circle turning into a square and turning into a circle
again
It really seems to turn….just wonderful.
I’m glad you feel it moving.
Things come and go don’t they? Haven’t seen that appliqué chicken before. Lately I’ve become enamored of a Japanese quilt appliqué artist. Been practicing a bit with her approach.
Yes, that rhythm is undeniable.
That’s an old one, revisiting applique, in my mind , for now.
Hello, Jude. 🍀
