tomorrow is July 1st.
and it is hot.
too hot, in fact for any rational being to even want to be outside.
and if we must be outside, say, to nourish our gardens,
we must look through saddened eyes at the dry, parched and cracked soil
that a month without rain has given us in our part of Virginia.
...because of this, or maybe it's just my 'nature',
I have been pouring myself into my designs for ~
much earlier this year.
I'm so grateful that I have my needlework and folk art as my therapy,
I would be bonkers by now without any of it.
every word and memory fills the pages of my heart and sketchbooks,
I create friendly characters and kind, gentle 'folk' that i bring to life with my hands
and whichever medium I choose.
a Crone, some might say, and my soul craves
& wants to create peace.
and my mind, the 'make-believe'
as it did when I was a young child
playing in the woods on the outskirts of my New England hometown
~ Blessed be ~
