Taking a seasonal pause while I have rituximab infusions for igg4rd - and perform some gentle but aggressive selfcare in my healing journey. I welcome snail mail but will be unplugging until Winter Solstice effective tomorrow with my first infusion. I look forward to sharing my textile and hand sewn bits with you upon my return.
Thirteen days until my first rituximab infusion for igg4rd. Found this fragment stuck to the outside of my watercolor pencil box. Sometimes we all need a reminder that everything is just duckie no matter the challenges we face because now, in this moment, we are vibrant and alive. I see you.
My favorite scrappy hexie of late. Batik is always a love for me. Owl? Butterfly? It’s such fun how these scrap fabrics become unique when hexified. Definitely a beautiful addition to #dameschaosquilt
Uh oh! All my hexie scraps are stitched around the paper pieces. Now to iron again and add to #dameschaosquilt…
Last August prompt for #artdailycollective is EYE. My son further tore his camp shorts and asked if I could salvage them with more woven threads. Yes, I can. What I loved about his ask is this time he came with ideas, with an eye to how the pieces could be mended, of what he wanted me to execute. He took some ownership for their style. Next step, teaching him to mend himself. For now though I’m happy that every day has the potential to be #mendday in our home.
@yarnfreak outdid herself with this #passtheprettiesswap - see that joy on my son’s face? It comes from gorgeous fingerless gloves - swipe to see more of the amazing crochet treasures she sent me! Beautiful garland and ornaments, functional and pretty wash cloth and decorative pins. Did I mention she also indulged my rock fetish with a cool crocheted stone? You’ll have to wait for today’s reel to see that precious gem!!
The sky is a poisonous garden tonight… beautiful and I loved being out in that wind!
When a friend arrives with boxes of fabric, you pull out your hexies. Hands are feeling well enough to work on #dameschaosquilt
What are you grateful for? I am grateful for my hands and all they allow me to touch, directly and through their works in this world.
