so...finished. Maybe i'll do more stitching...just double split back stitch...on what is here now, but probably not. She might wear these pants once or twice. Will out grow them by Thanksgiving. and I'm not much into stuff that will be kept forever. This is their only child. So not a hand me down. Just a ....well....a gesture. Just a gesture. Kind of in place of words, from this Grandma.
and i worked some at basting randomly the loose pieces just so i can take to the Laundromat.
And absorbing the meaning of Change, the meaning of Just Going from Jude's Post today, i think about all that has come to me in the last few years. How much i have found in Relationship with cloth...she refers to this as Sympathy....but i don't use that word. I would say Relationship. How much i have come into Relationship with cloth, thread, string. Dye. There's a lot to think about.
and since the new Way will be silent, i think about how much i have loved the comments in the segments. How they have meant almost as much to me as the Posts. Many Eyes. Many Hearts. and this is something i think i might miss a lot. I think so.
So....that's it for today. Sonny the truck is back home and running like a mustang. SUN is drying the land, moment to moment. Tomorrow a new half ton bale of Alfalfa comes. Life goes on.
