Wow! forgot you wove this whole piece until I looked at it close up. Quite the accomplishment. The center works well into our star,sun,moon whisperer. Awesome, be sure to date and sign as it is truly a heirloom.

Been making breakfast for the boys and I just keep sneaking back to look at this! The white is just so rich with texture from all those little stitches. It is stunning, grace.

i remember when you first purchased the cloth and
so many urged you to move forward with it!
and you DID!
love is stitched into each and every fiber.

the desert air and sky………………….
