Quilled, not Quilted
I have discovered the art of Quilling, and for the last two weeks, have worked with my son’s 4th grade class to make this quilled eagle. We all twirled hundreds of small strips of paper then glued them into an eagle shape inspired by the designs of the native Haida Tribe. Many hours, many hands.
What Moved Me Today
Today would have been the 100th birthday of Oregon’s former Poet Laureate, William Stafford. Oregon Public Broadcasting just aired a live show from Portland’s Central Library honoring this amazing writer. Give it a listen or check out some of his poetry to inspire you in whatever you do.
Tallit for Bar Mitzvah
Recently, I had the honor of making a young man’s tallit, a Jewish prayer shawl, for his bar mitzvah. I made this one out of lightweight wool suiting in blue/grey.
