these pieces having remained on the Wall since then,  so, remembering 

 

IMG_3815f

i looked over to the right of me at the envelope of scraps that Patricia,  Followingthread.wordpress.com  sent…small pieces,  she sent them in a letter size envelope,

and without any forethought,  just arranged them like this.   Tied them to the big cloth with just a little piece of thread.   How GOOD it felt to do this,  to look at them this way,  in Community.  I'll leave them on the wall this way and use each as i go along over time….BUT,  still wondering about this Urge to make a figure,

How did this feel?    Is / Would it be enough to do this?   Or do i really want to make a 

being?

But then…the "ground cloth" for the Being would be this Place.  This house,  as it is for me.   Thinking.

    Rich palette here, and free thought too. The tilt of the little woman looking up is so touching—dear and endearing.

    trust the spirits when they arrive
    they speak out wisdom
    a truth is to be told
