slowing down, not rushing
enjoying warm (hot) days
picking courgettes and beans
then eating them for supper
at last Saturday's workshop on Indian Stitching we looked at
banjara stitching
kantha stitching
Indian mirror work
and little samplers were started
which might look like this
I've read The Chemistry of Tears by Peter Carey - strangely wonderful
next up, Rumi The Fire of Love by Nahal Tajadod, the story of the great Sufi poet
and creator of the whiling dervish I am transported to 13th century Arabia
today I revived my two week old indigo vat it's not often in that this
can be done 'outside' without the aid of a heater of some kind
another indigo workshop this weekend - forecast hot and humid, perfect
now to water the garden and harvest a handful of beans

Ah Tiggy, you are so fortunate to have such wonderful workshops nearby! I'm so envious!! I love your Indian stitchery sampler. Your color sense is terrific!
