Happy St. Valentine's Day...

Hello everyone.  This is the heart I wove in Jude's Contemporary Woven Boro class.  Everyone is doing such inspiring work.  This heart was meant to go on a tree outside, but it's raining so today it's hanging on the plum blossoms from my neighbor's yard. Pot Roast is on the menu tonight...friends are coming over!

This is the latest in the trivet collection.  Also being called Miniature Prayer Rugs.  This one is called "seeds of tomorrow".   I wanted to see what would happen if I put it through the hot cycle of a washing machine.  This was not a great idea...presently it is smaller than it was and I had to work a bit to restore its good looks.  Hand washing recommended...

That's all for now. Love to YOU...

Getting Ready

In preparation for Groundhog Day, which is coming right up on Wednesday...2/2/11...I thought I would spend some time contemplating my shadow.  I love this holiday because it affords us this possibility.  It need not be ONLY the groundhog who sees or doesn't see his shadow.

  The handyman at the church on the corner painted the yellow lines so people would stop tripping over the curb there...the yellow of the paint made the shadow look very violet in the late afternoon sun...alas this doesn't show in the photo.  Nevertheless.  This is a depiction of my shadow picking up signals from all over.  I am often incorrect in my interpretation of these signals.  Ha!  I can blame it on my shadow!

This is a little weaving (the white part) I made in Jude's boro class to put in a window, or maybe on a tree:

C'est tout pour maintenant!
