Of course, but for the record. One. Instead of many thread beads.

I think I need a drone… I will take a photo outside when I get a chance, right now, a small ice storm. The Grow cloth, becoming bigger. I decided to do that first. With what is on hand here. It is good to be using some of the larger pieces of cloth here. Using them. I am using what I call seamless piecing here. I will probably talk more about that later. Anyway, about 12″ bigger all around should […]

ok. Grow… This one was on the small round table we moved outside to the porch. I brought it in and hung it on the wall too look. In October. The red circle was drawn using the edge of that table as a guide. The man made that table. And the cloth stayed and became a table cloth while I worked on it. We sat. talked. Ate. Looked into the forest. Soul-O had his own chair, slept there under […]

Away we go for a bit. Some visiting, because it is not snowing and warm. OK. A little Nine. One inch squares. Nine as Time passes. Maybe yesterday, today and tomorrow. Maybe a blink of an eye.

Maybe a pencil and a scrap of paper. Small cloth. Thought […]

The remnants of hurricane Ian have reached the Northeast. Looks like 3 days of rain. Like real rain. I never liked rain so much. Woke to the sound of it. More quilting today for sure. And there was a new Moon Cabin yesterday because it has been […]

When a pattern emerges, it is easy going. I am patching first and adding the circles as I go. Not measuring, just the best I can. How it looks right to me. I suddenly thought about centering, how that is really about balance. Balance is often a feeling, a sense, not a measurement. I wonder, if it seems balanced to me, will it feel balanced to you, and if so, would it be for another reason? I see cat hair. […]

Pace slows. Everybody knows. Probably I have listened to too much Leonard Cohen. As slow as I go, though, a pattern always emerges. Pattern might be considered a kind of reach. Or then, maybe the opposite. Does repetition strengthen, or dilute?
