how to do this.

Jude has a word for this.  I never remember it.  But it is about how the "weight",  both visual and literal of the entirety of the cloth is evenly distributed.  Here…obviously Not.  So i thought maybe doing Kantha in the "spaces" and began that.  But i don't think that's it.  The spaces are the Womb.  Multiple.   Earth Womb is multiple.  So those stitches will need to come out.  

The incongruence remains.

but, even tho,  there is something that i really LIKE about that…that feels Good in me,  a pleasurable discomfort.  I am going to need to do something i've not done before.  ok.

and while i was standing at the table either stitching or placing so small scraps,  i was ONLY there.  Only.  Single minded.  Right there.  IN the cloth.  It's what i'd hoped for.

    That sort of focus…just being there and doing it, that’s one of the gifts of cloth, and any art focus really.

    ha well i think “managing the incongruent” will work well for you. I love the floating here. The “about to form” of it. That there might be something to figure out.

    The big magic has begun and you are sensing that you will be ready for it. Powerful beginning. I like the stitches. Cesarean symbolism or an opening or closing ritual being called.
