back yard
front yard
and
two silver buttons,
waiting for string
the back of one above
thank you roz.
since school has begun
i'm a bit busy
missed yoga
but getting a few things done.
dyeing silks
goldenrod and rose leaves and wild grape
and indigo
a little cauldron
the end of the indigo harvest
just in time
frost is in the weekend forecast
a zine to welcome the intertime of autumn
pleases me
and yesterday and today news:
a papermaking student from the northwest, jan,
sent me lovely words
and a dyeing student,
also from there, jenny,
sent me a wonderful postcard:
a print of usnia and dyed with the same
labor day weekend was amazing with a houseful
a coven
healing and resting
and stitching and making energy.
wild grapes from the frontyard,
look like the backyard,
on three layer silk
and then there's
today's surprise.
(when i can get blogger to listen
to my request,
i will share that, too.)
it's working into a storm.
wendy is restless.
i have a thing or so to do, before suppertime.

ReplyDeleteoh, MOON. love that you keep working.
ReplyDeleteyour little pots of goodness are so inspiring! every time I see another bundle unwrapped I ache to give it a go....
ReplyDeletef, it was amazing, and the little canon struggled valiantly!
ReplyDeletea, plugging away a bit at a time
r, it's great when i use paper, and the silks are for a BOOK!
and really there were 3 silver buttons...the third deciding to hide till i got home again !
ReplyDeletecheck your mailbox coz soon it will be with you too
thanks so much v
r, oh, my, i will be haunting my mailbox!
ReplyDeleteA cornucopia of delightful moments and bundles of joy! It makes me happy.
ReplyDeletef, i cannot believe my resiliency, even buoyancy, this school beginning!
ReplyDeleteus Sagittarians IS resilient and buoyant!!! [and before some well-meaning soul corrects me, yes, i know that should be "we" and "are"]
ReplyDeleteI'm usually rearing to go at the start of school... but this year, seems I've given away some of my resiliency. I'll look for it in the garden. Did you see the weather report? In my neighborhood, the "they" folks are saying that it will be JUST above freezing this weekend, so maybe picking dyeing things is a good idea....
ReplyDeletebackyard indeed. fall colors in the storm
ReplyDeletei, we is, indeed!
ReplyDeletev, i feel very very lucky
n, the trees are just beginning their paint jobs, but the sky, yes, indeed.
Glorious skies, Velma, and, oh, that moon.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the button...and a third is coming...wow!
Amazing how a school filled day doesn't just doesn't hold you back!
