my life offers endless opportunitiy for doing things differently

 
 
opening myself up to constant change in my own being

and in reality

increasing my capacity to love

increasing my capacity to not be afraid



We are off to Quilt National today.

more details later

 

Once I am dead, it will represent only the shell of an enigma...I will give you more details later.

If details are not there, I beg you not to plunge unexpectedly into my few secrets, or read my letters if any are found, or look at my photographs if any turn up.

I am not frightened of the truth.

I am not afraid to tell a secret.

But until now, words have been frailer and more cunning than I would have liked.

the sublime

there is an idea that we are currently living in a state of the sublime

even in our every day lives - this global, electronic, terrifying society around us

if the sublime means something that is beyond our grasp
bigger than us
unnamable

diamonds have four sides

 
 
Ask her to define how she wants her work in textiles to be.

visually
tactilely
metaphor
scale

Ask her how she is different from me
and from the tradition

stitching reflects the speed of the body

 
the notions of immensity and wabi sabi do not have text

do not be frightened
