good thing there was yesterday because this is today.  Very early.   The rest of the day was sky river,   on into  evening.  And good that i took a lot of pics of the Blanket.     When i look at them today,    it's very different.   i see possibilities.   and i see what i saw all along,   all the pieces of cloth i Love.   Today is  good.

and the "little sleep" gave the thought of what if……..what if there are two rows of 4 at the top and same at the bottom ,  looking at it vertically,    and in between  one row of 3….the center spiral of which would be a Metta Spiral???    Yesterday was day 28,  the last day of  Sharon Salzberg's  Real Happiness Meditation Challenge.   I will miss her very much….the Teaching,   the guided meditation first thing every morning and repeated  in the days.   It all remains available until May 31.  I intend to Begin Again on March 1,   tomorrow.   and maybe while i listen,   see what a Metta Spiral might be like?

the road in the pic above is Carefree Way.   that's the Plumcot tree,   just beginning to blossom.

    Grace your post from yesterday .. you’re at the fun and most difficult part of making a quilt. Finding balance in all the beauty. Being able to lay it out the way you did makes all the difference. I have no doubt that after some moving and shaking you’ll find exactly what you’ve been seeing in your minds eye. It is absolutely beautiful with all its beautiful stripes of color stitched together with unending love.

    any thoughts you have…so so much appreciated….your words reminded me here that it’s ok that i don’t know….have never even imagined making a quilt let along attempted. So different from the small Cloths i’ve made that are uhhhh,
    pictures. How this is something else entirely. Sat with the Tina Quilt today thinking about this.

    I’ve come to think there is no “wrong” way to put spiral blocks together …
