..a Beginning... from a Gift

A few weeks back i received a gift from grace, the dear one who blogs at windthread... this is her Keeper of Seeds.. The Keeper spoke to me of a new direction...






...here is the other side.. hand stitching and grace-penmarks and subtle color:



..this is the cover of the hand-folded card which held Her safe in transit...another grace-work:

...not only this...but grace provided incentive and advice... for when, perhaps, i might consider stepping into the blog-o-sphere... Oh My! so unexpected and so kind!

my deepest Thanks to You dear grace!

    Welcome to this amazing world of fabric storytelling and photographs and friends around the world. There is really nothing quite like it. I remember when I first started and those who wished me well with their comments, many still reading along with me many posts later. I know blogging has helped to carry me in the hard times and spread the joy in times of celebration, as well as help me reflect on the moments and experiences that make up a life. Enjoy!

      Hello Angie! Oh my! So many new faces! Glad to meet you! I will be spending time getting to know you and the other kind souls who've commented... it will take a few days and I made a paper list so I can keep myself straight!

      Hi there Saskia! I've visited you too over at Tales from the Birdhut! I see your cover page has a piece of circle-dyed fabric, something I just tried. Synchronicity!
      And (ahem) yes...the ever-growing stash! I plan on making many things!
      but... I'm more apt to collect than to make!
