Rain pours down, sideways
Umbrella threatens to flip
Inside out with wind.
Art Prescription: Here in NC we’ve had a nice long cool spring. So nice.
I drove to three stores today to find hoops for my Stitch Kits. Ended up at JoAnn Fabric and waited in line outside with my mask and gloves. Only so many people in the store at one time.
Since I was there I picked up a couple of new fat quarters of fabric.
Next design: a bird:
An assembly line
Packaging my new Stitch Kits
Sending hope through mail.
Art Prescription: I’m excited about the response to my Stitch Kits!!
Sun shines through window
Wake… what day is it…hello
Coffee is ready.
Art Prescription: Anyone else feeling disoriented? Without a schedule? What day is it?
Early walk at Mason Farm. Saw a Fly Catcher.
Continue this stitch project:
Fairy purveyors
A skill to be developed
Journal for records.
Art Prescription: If you aren’t keeping a fairy journal during these times, then you are missing out on magic.
Serious fairy hunters know keeping records is a must. Fairies are of course mysterious.
Local fairies have provided journals for those on the look out for all good among all people.
Each piece of pine straw
Or lichen, twigs, spider’s silk
Laid with high design
Art Prescription: Bird’s nests are architecturally a wonder!
My walks sustain me.
And also my art. My Stitch Kits are designed to give peace.
New design:
Don’t take personal
Words or actions from others
It’s their perspective.
Art Prescription: So often we allow the words of others bother us. Usually it’s all about them…
Fabric collage with quote and improv stitching:
None of us know now
What life is going to be
Wading through water.
Art Prescription: So we go about our days staying afloat.
Fabric collage on vintage wallpaper:
Time to perculate
Bring the gerbil in to home
Off the running wheel!
Art Prescription: Having extra time to work on some ideas has been nice.
I’m hoping to soon list an embroidery kit in my Etsy shop.
Meditational
A needle, thread, slow stitching
Embroidery rose.
Art Prescription: Today while it was cool and rainy, I stitched the rose.
I’m putting together a kit idea. A kit would come with everything to stitch this mini piece of art.
It could be framed or made into a pin-cushion or lavender sachet.
Steam rises from cup
My morning is slow, leisure
French toast with my mate.
Art Prescription: Isn’t it lovely to have a slow morning? No rushing or appointments, running out the door with yogurt in hand. Time to sit with a cat or two in my lap, and watch the birds.
Little bit nippy, but I did head out to my studio to paint…
