I have a lot of ideas. That is basically where I am always at. Getting them out there. I feel good doing that.

And just a path to building something. indigo magic Indigo is magic. practice What if inbetween is more important than we think? What’s the rush? A More Ancient Light. That’s what came to mind. (I whisper a lot in the morning, the Man here sleeps in, perhaps that is how cloth whispering evolved, ha!)

Just a few marigolds. A bit of alum. On silk, in the sun. Solar Dyeing. There is another jar without the alum. I have heard there is a fade factor. Best to see for self.

Heat is building here again today, Maybe I will leave it a bit longer. Maybe inspiring another SUNflower. I mean wow. […]
