Daily Notes- June 24th


Things are happening with this one.  It actually looks better as a square rather than a rectangle. I have to find a backing fabric for it.  Start doing invisible stitch to hold it all together.

I missed writing yesterday.  We had invited friends over to see our yard and garden.  And the compost piles.  Gardening people are weird like that. I washed the windows on the front of the house and swept the porch.

And today I am potting up my tomatoes into their forever (for the summer) home in the Grow Boxes.  About time for that as they are getting really TALL.   And I will do this work in the garage.  Pull the car out and park it.  And then work on my work bench.  Like I worked on things at work ( greenhouse).  Easier on the back.

The Soccer.  I missed seeing the England game with all the "anger issues" and "tantrums" but we did see the French play Brazil.  These games go into extra time.  Today there are two good games. One starts at 11 and I need to get the tv/recorder going.  Watch went I finish the tomatoes.

I "saddened" cloth  the day before yesterday.  Made it duller and less "white".  White is fine with bright colors but overpowers quieter colors.  So, I boiled the cloth with some acorn caps, sumac and avocado skins.  A resulting pinky tan color.  Very faint.  But not white.

Time to go.

This piece is so interesting. Energetic, yet eloquent.Shifts and changes even as I stare.
