Indigo Sky

7"x8", assorted painted cloth with paper and mostly hand stitching with some machine stitching. I'm loving the indigo and I'm still persevering on the slow stitching. This piece was much larger but I kept trimming back and making late decisions on placement.
I'm already back at the work table sorting through my piles of cloth treated with indigo as well as some rust treated cloth. Keeping my eyes and heart open to those dawn and dusk memories...the kind that leave you breathless at the everyday quality of extraordinary beauty...we are so lucky to be alive no matter the circumstances! (my bit of hard won wisdom)

    That indigo is so luscious I feel I could sink right into it, and the stitching is wonderful. A truly lovely piece. And your hard won bit of wisdom really resonates with me.

      Thanks so much. This stuff is great...rather than the natural indigo, I'm using an Indigo paint and it is perfect on fabric.
      Did you notice the black type against the gray background?
