All is well in Sweden. Been doing a little dancing, a little knitting, a little spring cleaning, lots of lovin' and celebrating friends. Today I am on my way to Gotland.
Opening my sails to the winds to see what blows in next.
This fall I will be heading "Up Nort" to attend a textile course from the ground up! A really wonderful place. Turn on your google translators and check it out!

I'm dreaming in a world of clothes from the earth that are versatile and flexible, sizeless, fun and beautiful,  and... made from  my own hands! I dream of a world where we create clothing as locally as possible, that are durable and have adjustable waists and sizing that allows you to grow and change with the seasons. I dream of designs and colors that are playful joyous and fun to wear. It feels for me like I honor myself and  the animals and plants with this closeness :)
And I would love to have rain gear that is not synthetic....maybe fish guts (they do make them), maybe leather...we will see!  :)
Going to Gotland to visit people and sheep! Happy beginning of summer to you all!

This is Sweden at its heart.
This is the art of Rolf Lidberg.
I love him.
He captures the essence, the beauty and simplicity.

Happy Full Moon Day!

Light a fire
Sip some tea
Do whatever helps you be!

Sing a song
Clang a gong
Play whatever  sound your heart needs now.

Gather round
Sit alone
Reach out to what your spirit pleases,

but honor the cycles and tides that flow
in and out
and out and in
and open your heart to the world!

I love spring with all the pink flowers blooming everywhere can't help but feel so gentle.
Today I visited a new mom and baby girl. Aww what a glow surrounds birth. Both for the child and for a new mom. New bridges for both. Truly a miracle.
So grateful for the gift of mothers, babies, flowers and newness.
Thanks to all the seeds that the fathers also help make this miracle happen.

Glow.
Life.
Beauty.

Thanks Creator of All Things.
