Re frame

March 24, 2023 by jude

A small story cloth. In between busy moments. I let it go quietly in the shop. I think more about quietly. Almost as much as I think about Kindness. This one, called Path, aka as Kindness is Larger than Wisdom. And now just reflecting on Wisdom vs Kindness, how one might be a form of judgement and the other need not be. Maybe Kindness overcomes judgement. When it is done quietly. This, a surprising moment, I think because of […]

Building

February 20, 2023 by jude

Building. On my mind, because patchwork is that. But then thinking about building in general. Remembering the reference to the built world in the book, The Inner Studio, by Andrew Levitt. And now trying to understand how to use the past as a foundation instead of trying to just live in it. Let it go to become a kind of sense. Not trying to remember or repeat but allowing the whole of it to just support the becoming. My foundation […]

where the magic is today

February 13, 2023 by jude

This is an old joodle. On half an envelope. You know, scrap paper everywhere. No need to buy paper, ever. There are loose thoughts floating around. This became a listening self. Without a lot of saying. Because that is where I am at. Listening to you, Listening to me. Listening to… what speaks. A little Skitch Skatch story. I have opened the private page connected to Skitch Skatch in the glossary. Over time passwords will go away. Let’s breath. There […]

continuing from Yesterday

February 8, 2023 by jude

Yesterday, Liz, she mentioned Design Mending. I responded and then suddenly listened to myself, saying it has all become that. And yes, I truly feel that. Which goes back to my feelings about thingness and form. It is all moving. I source my energy from that. …after some stitching. The dots/circles look a bit like bubbles. I did not intend whales. Just life flow. But now they are there. …after some folding just to remove the house from view. Maybe […]

just imagining

November 28, 2022 by jude

Imagine Imagine. That’s what we do. I don’t think we can’t help it. Maybe we just decide to act on it or not. Share it or not.

Never Be Too Sure

November 9, 2022 by jude

Yes. Another post. To see if I can. I think maybe I am going to take a stand. I am going to be who I am, here, without worry. After all, it seems worry has taken over and I don’t have time really, anymore. It can be ok. Just putting what I can here, and if I can’t, well, you can just know it is because I can’t. Sometimes it is like that, in fact that’s just life. I have […]

The silence

October 7, 2022 by jude

Yesterday , I met her again. An old wordless self that could sit for hours with paper and just go. The before blogging self that drew almost every day, just for my Self. the one that could make any moment a picture.

the many

October 5, 2022 by jude

Selves. I did most of my illustration work (on paper) back in the 70s. I have said that before but how long ago that actually is now. This one is rather realistic. Like a person. Ha! I can say it looks like me then, with my wild hair. Drawn from a photo my brother took, I should find that. Some where in NYC. I remember I was wearing a handwoven vest and my grandmother’s old fur coat. What a time. […]
