After I posted last night, I continued to work on documentation and actually started to tailor it toward the idea of a journey. It was an intriguing feeling turning rather matter of fact information into something closer to a narrative. And I’ve decided to include some of my poems in the documentation. I sifted through all of them last night and found a little less than half were directly related to the project.
Today was definitely productive. I ironed the dyed silk, marked out the pattern on it, cut out the pieces and managed to get the back seam finished.
Tomorrow I move on to side seams.
Have I mentioned that I’m pleased with the color? I’m really, really happy with how it turned out. Yes, it is exactly as I’d hoped, but that’s just it, it’s exactly as I had hoped. And that’s absolutely wonderful. I needed the win.
Appreciate the / calm times, the moments / without stress or care – / file them away for later / when turbulence needs be soothed.
