These.  Three of them.  Jude's Winter Bitch.  The Moth that came.  The best cloth i have ever made.  These three.  All i need.  They will carry me.

there could be more stitching….as in following the shadow lines,  but all i added were the marks,  those so like Thread Beads   (Jude Hill)  at the hem of the Moth's wings.  I drew her antennae with pencil…graphite, for those who love words…i debated stitching them but that would have changed everything and i didn't want to.  So.  Enough for now,  maybe for ever.  But for now there's these three and they will take me into the Next.

    Good to look in…easy to catch up too…you posted sparingly…the moonlit photo was gorgeous a bit back…so onward. (if you read Dee Mallon you will see this there): Just back to the City and the computer after Friday to Tuesday blissful chirping morning greetings and evensong of cricket, cicada and katydid, trees giving voice to wind, a garden to water as the sun moved East to West, cooking, eating, napping, reading, writing and some art making in blissful alone where I could hear my thoughts, pay attention to them or not…in a modest cottage where everything within speaks another language. The be there now of it like a pole shift, like heart surgery, or sacred retreat. To disconnect is a potent tonic. I’ll return Friday for more of the same until the 16th.
