Scraps shuffled and shuffled around Tina's moon, until I picked up the rainbow cloth by Deb that became the house. Actually, it already was. The only cut/tear that I made was at the bottom, separating the house shape that stuck off of the end of a scrap. I wasn't even looking for a house, but there it was. Surrounding it with a collage of polka dots (including some of Dee's dots) and stars made for a happy afternoon yesterday.
In spite of (or maybe because of) the bluster that's visiting for a few days here in the Pacific Northwest.
While I stitched, it bent the trees, knocked over the bins outside, and shook the windows all afternoon.
Twigs flew at the windows as the light changed and flickered.
Still, there is something cozy about a storm. Maybe it's gratitude for having windows, walls, and warmth between us and the brouhaha going on out there.
Sewing a flannel jumper, and finding some new blue shoes are on my want to do list. Both involve shopping- something I don't want to do.
The wind is picking up again out there...
