Deb and Tina's cloths melting together with one of the indigo moons from last summer's vat. A new thing with the rings, instead of just stitching. Trying to make them more of the story, their own stories, too. A bit fiddly, but still enjoyable, especially playing with bias possibilities and limits.
These rings of color and light make me think of a rainbow. Dismantled and reconstructed at the same time.
There was rain yesterday, all day, the kind that makes you think "monsoon season". We didn't mind. We worked quietly at our own things. Quiet except for the Stellar Jay that yelled outside the window most of the afternoon. Complaining about the rain, I think.
Two of the rings are from new cloths. It's been a long time since I was in a fabric store. It was kind of like a visit to a candy shop- beautiful and overwhelming. I bought a few fat quarters, which may have been chosen partly for their selvedge messages. I used to be excited by the color dots on the edges, but now there are whole thoughts!
