keep going

Continuing. That’s what, basically, IT’s all about. Sometimes IT is just what moves through you. And how that changes IT. The question is what is IT?

summer 2022

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 […]

Control

Be in it. The haven I created here is not just for chipmunks. All of it, just is here within view. More life. As it is and will be. Earth Weeps. Under the needle. Weaving on my mind. Because weaving is a special kind of holding and a special kind of reminder.

Endless in Context of season
by jude
July, almost August really and I feel as if the season has only begun. You might note that this one isn’t as big as it seemed in yesterday’s photo. The large cloths seem smaller outdoors. I love that. It is only about 36 ” square-ish. And. It is quite thin really. From the back you can see it started as a woven panel backed with thin cloth and then placed on a larger thin cloth (dyed with acorns), I cut […]

Endless Wishing
by jude
The Endless Wishing Cloth, some of you remember, I am not even looking back at this point. In the basement on the wall, I hung it there when I moved here, thinking this, the basement will be my studio. I never come down here except to look for some scraps stored down here. There are too many mice, not enough natural light, and too many plans falling through cracks of time. Simply….NOT. I think the last time I posted about […]
