Today was the first session of the Magic Diaries it was full of the excitement of new beginnings. At one point Jude took a pen and drew directly onto a corner of the cloth, it made me gasp but then I realised that this is Jude's gift. She gives freedom. I shed many tears and not a little blood in my Domestic Science lessons at school, I never seemed to be able to do anything to the satisfaction of the teacher. I have been patronised because I haven't done my City and Guilds Embroidery (only by one person but in such a way as to make me feel inadequate ) and then Jude takes a Sharpie(no less) to a cloth made of interwoven pieces which I watched her make and when someone commented she replied "it's only cloth". Brilliant. Today I'm growing.

You are always growing but Jude is a catalyst. X
i loved that...just take a pen to one of your pieces once and you'll never gasp again. i've done that for years and my quilting friends used to look at in disgust that i would do such a thing. you can always cover it up with something else that might turn out better than the original.
hey hey!
