Nine for Peace got a binding yesterday.
Odd for me, right (?)... to be so definitive. Considering edge.
But then , it does not mean finished. Just a reference point. Maybe a sense of closure in these crazy times. Still stitching though...at about 27" square now, I consider it a large cloth. It's pinned over a Heart's Path right now. Too look. But it's small enough to be an easy lap project. I need that right now. And it's time for Peace already. Enough.
I will be putting together a newsletter soon. So many things have changed.
Beautiful and intuitive.
Also, a confirmation that a desire lives deep within your journey to continue.
Setbacks and change have a way of forcing us to return to our “center” in self preservation. It shows Hope .. not.. surrender.
Glad to sense this in your welcomed messages.
Prayers.
The depth in this piece is beautiful and quiet. I’ve done so many bindings just like this. Thank you!
love the squares within a square within a square within a square… like looking thru one portal after another. a sense of limitless timelessness… and peace… x
Thinking about binding as holding, edges are so real.
The sunny center, surrounded by colors of mourning, tells me the center will hold. Feathers and the swirling border tells me change is near even if stormy. It’s good to hear from you again, Jude.
Change is the only constant. ❤️
Really love how this seems to radiate and hold all at once.
It’s the dots outside of the nine that catch my eye…expanding the border of the nine and making the whole piece inclusive. Something so simple that brings it all together.
YES, YES…seeking peace in whatever way or form.
Gotta be a way.
This current piece is especially striking, I feel very drawn into considering the quiet.
it evolved unexpectedly…
The binding really adds something. And I get the size — larger but keeping it small enough to lap quilt.
That pattern creates a liquid edge.
Right now the size is big enough, exactly.
Yes, I thought it was fringe till I zoomed in.
Ha!
Peace of the gentle swirls to you. 💜
I wish you Peace. Your lap project is beautiful and inspiring.
I wish everyone peace while stitching
the gray as binding is so soothing right now. i have always wondered about that fabric with all of the swirls and cloud shapes and what were the designers trying to say in the design.
piece says peace.
it’s a storm cloud motif from Indonesia, seems to fit anywhere.
I find myself drifting back and forth among all the things I like to do in my studio. At 68 years old, I’ve finally learned that perfection is not my goal but joy and peace are. Now to get over that twinge of “guilt ” or the “shoulds” to “complete” whatever it is we are working on. Oh the baggage we carry throughout are lives. I’m learning from you to just be!
it just seems to feel good to be swimming in the larger ones right now…
the baggage yes, let’s lighten up.
Wonderful piece 💙
I like the binding holding it…
surprised me really.
Oh i really like this piece/ peace!
Calm and soothing. The light part in the middle, a little like hope.
Hope you are recovering well, taking the time it needs.
Peace
Oops.wrong place🤦🏼♀️…again
😂
Yes, it was just a little patch of hope for a long time.
Love it!
I have not a clever answer
Love

As my kids say when they agree with something….
100% for PEACE
💛
