Original “Weaving our tomorrows…” post/image from May: “Weaving our tomorrows…”
btw…that knitting in the background? It’s a photo of a scarf that I knit. I love the waves and ripples and deliberately dropped stitches that lead to interesting “holes” in the finished piece.
Sometimes, when I’m having a hard time with a life challenge, I’ll deliberately drop a few extra stitches, create a few more holes, as part of that pattern…and later remember that those dropped stitches or extra twists of yarn contributed to the flow and beauty of the whole pattern.
That knitted pattern is on a number of pages/images in this site. I know how to knit one pattern…only one pattern. 😉 … I could learn others, but I’m content with this one. So I have scarves and little hangings knit with 3 different colors of yarn…
the blue and teal seem to me like colors of understanding and clarity
rust and maroon seem like warmth, fullness and comfort
greens and grays seem like the nurturing of a walk in a rainforest
And so, may we weave well,
with whatever pattens we choose
with whatever colors we prefer
May we weave well…
I like this! 🙂 The font weaves and dances with the words, and the message made a greater impression in my mind.

I love using fonts and images and words that create a sense of “flowing,” “dancing” or “weaving”…. and to have them all do that with each other : )

Thanks….and your post today..that wonderful quilt! I love when an airplane goes up through the clouds and emerges into the pure blue sky. I always try to get a window seat and enjoy just spending hours looking out at the sky, clouds and horizon…so remarkable! And so to see that in a quilt is wonderful! Anyone else reading this? link to a photo of a very pretty quilt! http://jonibeach.com/2011/09/06/saqas-benefit-auction-begins-soon/

You only not created a beautiful weave, you also made a flowing, harmonious almost melodic poetry with it. A great post that weaved in the most wonderful way. Thanks for the post and the visit.
