Handwork on Planning Day (Saturday) was inspired by a really slow internet connection. I was supposed to be watching and absorbing awesomeness from Robyn and Brian Wolfe on Waldorfish. I checked out the replay on Form Drawing and Temperaments, but because of my rural connection and the overcast rainy weather it took a REALLY long time to watch. But, I was committed. While I waited for my computer to load, like the olden days I picked up a project. A couple weeks ago I had decided to pull together an Autumn Fairy. Right away I felt I had made the head too small, and wasn’t happy with the colors. I had to take a break and order more orange roving before moving forward. Doing and being is done in layers over here, and time does not exist. But here we are, October 2015. I’m nostalgic about the past, I have good feelings about the future, and here I Am Now. Working bit by bit. Learning. Grounding into the moment, so that we all don’t slip away with our thoughts. We are holding down the Home this week as Papa Bear prepares for a Design Show next weekend. AND, our third born son turns 2! Not only is it Harvest Season, but it is also the season of changing leaves and falling leaves. What will we let fall away…
So, I followed the Happy Hedgehog post demonstrating the Spring fairy. Fairy making is enjoyable. They don’t take overly long, and the result is a pleasing, unique energy. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask me here.
