Gosh it feel good to be back here.
And I needed that.
The blizzard didn't really make it this far west it seems. It's snowing, yes, the usual, but nothing like I was expecting. An inch overnight and flurries now. I went out in the woods yesterday and asked for mercy. Probably a coincidence, but I feel like I have connected.
A lot of my large cloths ( here Coma and Grow) have been used to discourage the drafts. I've been using painter's tape to lessen any cold air flows I've found. This coming spring and summer we should complete the sealing and repair here. And maybe I can get back to large cloth. I need a clothesline. Or a few in the woods. I would love for folks walking by to see them hanging around.
Lovely idea to hang large fabric works outside to play in the wind.
I can see it in my mind.
Comfort of self. This is so much like it WAS
👋 hey you!
Ahhh so good to be here. Read your words, see your cloths.
I wandered through the forest by your house and saw beautifull cloths hanging in the forest. Colorful yet blending perfect with natures color.
My mind likes to wander :-).
Happy late birthday Jude
Thanks for stopping by!
Nice to see your big cloths, lots of color against the winter white. Beautiful storm here, 10″, maybe, windy, but I’m protected in the forest, so the wind isn’t too bad. And, yeah, who needs stress? Personally, I want your realness. 🙂
I deal with anxiety, but I’m workin’ on it. Just knowing that helps.
Storm didn’t really get here, not even any wind.
Glad. no power outages.
So glad the snow stayed ‘normal’, and mama nature heard your plea.
How lovely to see Coma and Grow….and you back here….it feels homely.
Love whatever you do…paper, cloth….
Love to you and Soul-O.
🖤🤍
Yeah, this is it. ahhhhh…
Jude I would love to walk past your home to be granted the view of your large cloths. They’re stunning, all of your work is. Thanks so much for sharing all that you do and some of what you think. The snow has just started here on the East Coast of Canada, we’re tucked in waiting and watching, stitching at hand.
I like the idea so much, a forest installation. I’ll ask my sone for help. Enjoy the storm…
I’m always grateful to see and hear you. Stay warm! And a belated happy birthday to you. (Totally unimportant to anyone but me, your birthday is my half-birthday.)
ah, birthday math…
So good to have a glimpse of both of these big cloths. How good of them to help with the drafts! 🙂
cloth is so useful.
So happy you are back here. Love your creative work, it inspires me in my attempts. I originally heard of you through watching Kathryn or K3n. I’ve been following you now for almost two years. I use your invisible baste all the time. Thank you for it all.
Yes, she was a student way back… so happy to see her building a new community.
As always in love
Your big cloths warming you
As seeing them warms me!
Love
let’s be wrapped in cloth
It’s good to be here 💙
I’m glad you didn’t get too much snow.
I would love to be one of those neighbors walking by and seeing your quilts hanging on a line! 💙💙💙
Stay warm inside painting and stitching.
or a branch maybe.
the storm was kind…
Just love.
❤️
You found the path …now just walk…..you are fine.
here I, we, go, again…
Love pure unadulterated Jude…that’s what’s kept me coming here all these years. Just do YOU. ❤️
thank you
How beautiful!! Are you teaching how to make these or selling them?
oh, I did have a teaching series following some of my big cloths, I mostly blog about them, I have never tried to sell them, too personal.
Finding beautiful cloth hanging in the forest would make my heart sing!
Me, too!💚
Me as well! Can you imagine???
Me, too! I can just imagine it!
Would love to see those quilts hanging in the woods because you make the world more beautiful .
I came here to say just that ❤️
Imagine, cloths hanging, and singing, wouldn’t that be something?
There are no coincidences in this World. I honestly believe that, Jude.
Such beautiful work. Color! Movement!
Welcome back…🌞
Or maybe it’s all coincidence 😂
Good morning Jude,
Some times with little thought to who is listening, we ask to be spared or granted mercy and it is given. Is it mother nature listening? Or father god? I like to think mother nature is the more compassionate of the two. Whatever it is, a blessing is a blessing!! Being spared the worst of the storm is always good.
One day closer to that wonderful time,
SPRING. Sending hugs, good vibes and thoughts.
Pat, in Ohio
whatever it is, it is a gentle day for sure.
Real is the best.
No fluff needed.
Hugs
here we are. just here.
♥️
hey!
