it all looks like it would be so much easier.
Not. The addition of the 4 "memory squares"
on the right, the seed at the very bottom,
the brown square of "how it was" and the
thin membrane of silk gauze, took 4 hours.
I have no idea what to do next. Will probably
require an additional 10,000 days. Slow cloth.

at least... i am working with silk gauze now... i love it because not only is it sheer, it is like clay....

so nice that you are posting your work.....

jude ~ yes it is like clay but even better and was really my only success with dyeing in
glennis' workshop. In trying to use it here, I
realized how much there is to learn...thinking
about all I have watched you do...

thank you about posting. We'll see.

Where were you in california?????
do you remember?
Tikkun olam repairing the world
maybe our stitches are a small but worthy
part?

nandas said...

i was in the jewish museum in san francisco. it was a fabulous museum designed by daniel libeskind. there was a show on tikkum olam and how its our responsibility to do something to repair the world ... not repair it totally but just do a part. this is the kind of thought i love about the jewish religion...
