invisibly basted down. OR collaged. Once again, once again, the tactile pleasure of this. The Base base, the back, Muslin. Then, harem cloth. Over, Dana's gift and i did, for the first time, cut out the center....saved the center. Joanne's encouragement. The "components"....a woman, the banks of a creek over all. Stitch. invisible stitches. and it has become One. The FEEL of that, the becoming One. Taking out the pins. It is One.
