sometimes, when we have certain things to work with,  not a lot is needed.  just small things can be very much enough and sometimes very much even MORE.  

When Maria (aka 2) sent me my hundertwasser bracelet, she also sent some silk thread.   the Green above is that thread.   Tying  it into a tassel  was an experience.  So Light it was almost not even there.  and the color of Green….so exactly the color of Growing Things.  Garden Green.  Gaia Green.  Earth Green.

so that and Deb L's thread…..  

the deep satisfaction of stitching this small cloth thing.   it surprised me, really.   i want to Make more small simple things.   They feel very very good.

(the heart stone covers one of the things just for Martine)

    Maria’s green silk threads, so beautiful. I would hold this dear cloth in my hand and let my fingers walk through this green “grass”, looking for tiny discoveries…just feeling the silkiness of each strand.
