draped in fur


after some hours happily stitching inflight
and then a couple more spent chugging through the ranges
in the Red Terror [otherwise known as the Farm Ute]
i am home again
draped in welcoming cats and consuming quantities of honey-sweetened tea

having enjoyed eleven or so blessed days in paradise






all colours derived from locally gathered plant material - including windfalls, garden prunings and the dessicated contents of a vase



with grateful thanks to the keepers of this blessed garden.

  2. 11 days in paradise...now, that sure sounds fine, pictures to prove it. Did you all make a collaborative blanket?
    Welcome home, wanderer. Martha seems entirely content.

    1. each person constructed a cloth that was about 3'square
      and when laid side by side they made a larger patchwork
      but
      i don't think they would have liked to have gone home without them...
