Yesterday I did the clearing and cleaning. Today my studio was ready for me to begin something new. As I was putting away and organizing the two boxes of fabric that people had recently sent me, I came across some of the older fabric I had too.
I looked, but didn’t make any decisions. I wanted to leave that for a fresh mind.
Today I walked around my studio looking for fabric to use to make another Raven Pillow. But what I found instead were the owls. I toyed with a few other ideas for potholders before that, but when I picked up the gray owl it unquestionably felt right.
The owl seemed ghostly to me, all gray and white. I knew it needed to be in the woods. So I found the fabric to keep the feeling.
I designed five Spirit Owl Potholders before Jon and I took the afternoon off to visit the Clark Museum in Williamstown MA. I still have more fabric and I can’t wait to get back to my studio to make more.
I don’t usually work on Saturdays, but I can see going there tomorrow for a few hours. They are calling to be made.
Can’t wait to see the owl potholders. I hope to be able to get one to join my woman with an attitude
I can save one for you if you’d like LoisJean. I’ll email you about it. Thanks.
love the spirit owl potholder, would like it or one similar to it
Thanks Sharon, I’ll have one for you.
My husband and I live in a small city near a good sized park. Recently we’ve been hearing owls hooting at night. It’s such a lovely sound.
It so woderful how the big birds have come back to the cities Holly.
