i found the large piece of canvas wall cloth. 45" wide. it gives me a sense of what i will need. Knew today that i will put a wide border all around. All with Kantha.
please don't feel obligated to comment. there will be a lot of a certain kind of repetition but i need to document. I am used to feeling like i should put something "new" at least intermittantly. That's not happening right now. The total focus is here.
as i was just Looking all eve, something wasn't "right". aside from the yellowy light. they had been pinned randomly. Realized late that top right was upside down. it mattered. wanted to be turned.
when searching for the canvas i found an old curtain* from New Mex window, from Thrift shop Tienda Segunda , Socorro , the most magnificant source of old cloth. and for nothing, i googled. An article, May 2022. They need volunteers. I WISH i could go. Could i drive there a couple days week? How great would that be? But....then i remember. Part of the reason for these quilts is to use up these bags of cloth i live with like family, even part of my own self. I don't know how many things i got there over the years beside cloth. my own clothing, shoes, boots, books and magazines, and tools. baskets and picture frames. it was/is truly a Wonder Filled place. There was 10 cent Tuesday.
*very thin old cotton...will use in the middle for one. there might be two. if not, will use all the rest of the harem cloth for the second. For mine, if i get that far, maybe no middle? Jenny says she just wants a sheet . which i don't have, which will be up to her to find and purchase. but all that's a ways away. no need to go there now. Just be Here. Here is more than Enough.
