and back ...
Although I need to clarify that the back shown here will actually be the front upon which the cloth shreds will hang ...
while Rod's lyrics to I dream of a world will be entirely readable from the back ...
A double A-side, if you will.
I did stitch a few more shreds, too. A bit of Ulrike (Nemo Ignorat) cloth ...
more Deb Lacativa cloth ...
And this pair, stitched on indigo-dyed cloth gifted by Hazel at Handstories ...
(((Liz))) such beauty in the complex elegance of your stitching!
ReplyDeleteMo - I can't wait for you to feel the words under your fingers
ReplyDeleteI envy Mo because she will get to hold and admire your work eventually. I remember how stunned I was to receive your Hearts for Charleston square... you are doing it again -- deep, heartfelt thought and feeling rendered into symbol and prayer with thread and cloth! love it.
ReplyDeletePS did you find the silk hard to stitch through?
Dee - I envied you in turn getting to see and touch all the Hearts for Charleston cloths. As for the satin, I was wondering if it would resist the needle, but it has been quite kind to my fingers.
ReplyDeleteTactile is healing and soothing. I can "imagine" how those threads feel as you meld yourself into each stitch.
ReplyDeleteSue - stitch is my solace
