Catching up slowly

This is a close-up of progress on a portion of one cloth I've shown before and have been working on...the birds are indigo dyed cloth from Glennis...the cloth is woven from bits of fabric collected over the years
I started it in Jude Hill's cloth to cloth workshop; now I'm taking her Spirit Cloth workshop and today is the day to start something new for that.  It is all exactly what I need to learn and is keeping me Busy.  This cloth I decided to call "Texas", because 2 weekends ago I went to a family wedding in Texas!! My cousin is an amazing horsewoman and let me ride this beautiful horse:
 

She is leading us, thank goodness, and this doesn't show how fervently I am holding on to the saddle horn. 

Lastly, here is a photo of some wildness in the big park nearby. I love how, in spite of their differences, these plants are all getting along so nicely together.

  4. It is so true! It's a wonderful feeling to be up there, but I was really nervous en route...somehow both legs cooperated in these unaccustomed exertions. Thank goodness...
