a few more

 stitches
 now 
on paper
 dyed lokta
 on disheveled 
bleached abaca
 some little lines
dashes and dashes
 some knots or not
on that linen sleeve.
the paper is a page from a book of thoughts.
the cloth has yet
to become its own story.
a long way still to go.

  7. Those stitches and that fabric! What a delight they both are. Isn't the running stitch a joy to do? Meditative, soothing...

  8. your stitches and colour echo the season - slowly turning back to the earth.
