moon singing

the journey is stitched
fragments and circles
come to life
independent

memories of ancients



pavement sun
glowing

time travel


the abu dhabi sky held me in awe
light and shadow playing on a peaceful sea
wrapped around my senses like a familiar blanket


grave impressions


and
well heeled walking
through white

no more sleeps

at midnight we leave for frankfurt .. then to prague, paris and london ..



.. for this i will need my art survival kit .. i have included three types of white cloth because i want to do some white on white stitching .. and of course 'the journey' long cloth that i hope will be finished when i return (after one moon) .. i have one needle for stitching in my take-on luggage, i will be interested to see if they confiscate it! .. with a five hour stopover in transit, i would dearly love to sit and work on my cloth .. i will try to post while i am away....

..♥ .... thankyou to those who have looked and those who have looked and commented on my postings .. enjoy your time over december and january, whatever your faith, i look forward to taking up this thread some time soon ... peace ...♥

stitching love into it...

there is a purpose to all journeys..


that is not really the point .. is it? ..




working into this already travelled path fragments are made and pulled together..

in time....



and with love ....




beginning again

here is the start to something ..




reworking old cloth has shown me how far i have travelled on the journey ...





freyed fragments mark steps ..


running stitch and cross stitch walk over the past..

needling through the dye and paint .. repurposing the journey to begin again ...

stitching a journey

......brought up from the past, this fabric is part of a larger painting being repurposed for a journey piece...

..two pieces


joined together....


...while i am away for one moon i will work on this journey into and through an 'unfamiliar landscape'... an idea inspired by jude from http://spiritcloth.typepad.com/spirit_cloth/2009/12/recalculating-time.html
... (still haven't worked out how to make a nice clean link)..
