Strange, we should reconsider that. Otherwise it will limit us…

aka a Blue Prayer Rising

Going with the flow might be a way to get lost in a way. Losing self might be a tool.

she is complicated
by jude
But she is beginning to see who she might be. Over the past days. A few changes. To create a sense of time, a sense of inbetween, a sense of wind, a sense of standing…and a sense of understanding. A sense of self. Expanding. Just considering all things. A new eye. Maybe in this form…skEYE. I think, in this form, as a result of overlapping fields, more than a looking eye. a seeing eye? But then, one that clearly arises […]

it was there
by jude
This one. Because it was in the pile of I Don’t Know. Created while I was considering Home. A lot. Pinned to the wall for so long, I got tired of looking. Waiting for direction. First. Everything Is Connected. Then. Holding on to Nothing. Finally, calling it New Eyes. Yesterday I stitched all those little stitches on either side that frame the intersection circles. I didn’t sleep so I spent some time last night considering continuing the border stitching in […]

Carry On
by jude
This weekend. Learning this video tool. Here just seeing how natural morning light turns out (because I love the edge of darkness). What grainy means. Trying to connect small moments. And just showing for no reason other than so something is here. No snow forecast. But snow. The mountains rule. That stray self on the muslin cloth, I have been calling it Life is Heavy. And today maybe I will call it Carry On, has a more positive sense to […]

Working with Sanity

This one holds so many moments of Acceptance. A is for Acceptance, a new word just added to the glossary because some considering happened while dreaming. I renamed this one, shortened the name to Over Time The garden might teach acceptance. And I did add a new symbol to my Spirit Cloth language, I call it LifeLine.

summer 2022
by jude
For a long time now, inspired by Dana… …the cloth I call Grow, remains on the table, as a Table Cloth. It made a a great backdrop for seed sorting yesterday. While we enjoyed a few drops of rain for about 2 minutes. Here in lower New York State, where water is everywhere, declared a drought area with reduced ground water for at least the near future, expected to continue now for however long. Birds , bees, squirrels, chipmunks and […]

Filling up with words
by jude
I may just call her Done aka Singing Woman. She ended up resting here for a while… My cloths have become kind, they often hold one another. Until it is time to go. While small cloths are about being held, large cloths are about holding. Blankets, not art. It is important to me that they not be “art”. It is hard to explain. But someday I will be able to find the words. If I live long enough. Weird summer. […]

S day
by jude
S was for Sunday but I posted something else. S is for stitch. Been doing a little. I am playing with the Temple image again. Trying to make it simpler. Temple is often so removed from real life. I would like to think of it as a kind of home, filled with a kindness and lightness. Wings helped. Temple in the of the Sky. Sky Place. Not god place. S is also for squirrel today. I get closer every time. Suddenly named […]
