sometimes i seem to careen off into a tangled forest of thought and distraction. these journeys may last a few minutes, if i'm lucky...weeks, or even months, if i am inattentive to the moment. our first snowfall this year woke me from this current slumber. nothing like a face full of snowflakes to bring ones attention back to the moment!
my creativity levels are still on the sluggish side, so i have simply picked up the pile of tiny little 1 1/4" squares of salvaged fabrics and begun stitching again. it's rather like walking, isn't it? first you take one stitch. then another. and another. pretty soon cloth is materializing beneath your fingers!

So nice to hear that your fingers are leading the needle to the fabric. It's time to be engaged... Like coming home. The first snow.... It's a sacred thing.
ReplyDeletecoming home and sacred snow....i like this. very much!
Deleteoo snow already and lovely stitching
ReplyDeleteI always like the little squares
have a great day
little squares have a pleasantly grounding effect on me...
DeleteWe escaped the snow, but only for a bit. It is pretty, the first snow. I always find that once I begin, take the first stitch, the mind relaxes and ideas flow. Wishing you a time where the flow takes you were you need to be.
ReplyDeletewith such warm wishes, i can already feel the flow gathering...
DeleteInch by inch, stitch by stich, that's how to make the cloth grow? Or something like that. According to the Farmer's Almanac, we should be seeing snow soon. Which means I better get raking!
ReplyDeleteraking? what is raking? ha! perhaps that is a little tidbit about myself that i shouldn't be spreading around. ha!
