i had mended these worn spots on this pillow Cover, was so happy with the mending and then it went into the wash and, o, eeeee, the extent of the wear became clear. The Other side was fine. So i just kept putting the Other side out, visible, leaving this soft worn side quiet and turned. No amount of mending is going to make it ok. It will need to have some good sized cloth sewn on. Ok, but....i wasn't ready for that yet. Not ready to say goodbye.
What makes things ok. ? What small, really, things, make such a difference that stuff all of a sudden, is just enough OK.? I brought back, from the Storage Unit the Sister Pillow of the above. This one not having wear and remaining very whole, even tho old too. The pale blue pillow and the Old Grandmother Pillow. This small pile of books. And i am leaving this basket of scraps Out.
Each night, i need to move these things over to the table bench seat, to make my bed. Each morning, i roll up my sheet and quilt, pillow and bring them back. Like you see them in the pic above. And it's all just Fine. It's all feeling very OK. Books. A basket of cloth. Pillows. It doesn't take much.
