True Stitches: Rugs'n'Hugs
http://truestitches.blogspot.com/2015/08/rugsnhugs.html
To join, to make or mend, to decorate. Friday, August 14, 2015. One of the reasons you haven't heard from me lately is that I helped organise our Gabriola Hookers biannual event that happened last Saturday. It was held at the Commons, our collectively owned community centre. Thirty-five hookers from southern Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands joined us for the day. We also had a show and sale that had over 200 members of the public coming through. There were several areas to work in. And that's all Bl...

True Stitches: January 2015
http://truestitches.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
To join, to make or mend, to decorate. Saturday, January 31, 2015. Six complete critters, three partials, and a whole lotta foliage to go. Dimensions about 54" wide and 36" high, stitched in Paternayan crewel wool for the critters and DMC #5 Perle Coton for the foliage. I started on November 18th, so that is approximately 150 hours of stitching to date. I take my work seriously. Links to this post. Friday, January 30, 2015. We were off for a few hours of hooking at Val Galvin's studio. I love the idea of...

True Stitches: February 2015
http://truestitches.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
To join, to make or mend, to decorate. Saturday, February 28, 2015. I last gave you a progress report on the Codex. Piece on January 31, so I guess I'm due. It may not seem to changed much from last time. But I have added two partial weasels, a wolf, a porcupine, and a "manitou" - the weird little critter with the curly tail in the lower right. Oh, and a whole lotta foliage. The design runs over the edges as if it were an endless field. I sincerely hope I will be done before the end of March! I collected...

True Stitches: August Linen
http://truestitches.blogspot.com/2015/07/august-linen.html
To join, to make or mend, to decorate. Monday, July 13, 2015. It's not August yet, but when I went into the bedroom the other evening, the sultry amber light reminded me of late summer. I took a series of photographs without moving anything - this is the jumble of my life. I was thinking of skin, and stone, form and time. And I miss my clean white linen and my fancy French cologne. So inviting on this very cold morning at 3am! Please forgive me for using word verification. The spam robots got to me.

Re: drinking the water. Posts Tagged ‘consumerism’. Do drink the water. Friday, October 15th, 2010. This year’s Blog Action Day. Topic is water. So I thought I’d take the opportunity to share how grateful I am to have access to some of the world’s best drinking water. But first, I want to talk about phones. Have you noticed the disappearance of public telephones? And how the remaining ones are falling into serious disrepair? What, you may wonder, does this have to do with water?

Re: drinking the water. Posts Tagged ‘conditioning’. Sunday, October 10th, 2010. There’s a mode of thinking that says that if you want to do well or survive in this world you need to engage in positivity. The idea goes that if you spend all of your time dwelling on negative thoughts you won’t succeed at anything. Monday, September 28th, 2009. Red and white sides of a Rubiks Cube completed. I remember doing this as a child but had no recollection of how I had managed to do it back then. To that end I̵...
