SOLITUDE QUILT #1


"The World is too Quiet without you nearby..."
-Lemony Snicket
 It's usually very quiet around here anyways. But now it is extra quiet. Everyone home. Home is a good word these days. Just the birds making spring song.And once in a while the sound of a lawnmower...
 My first quilt top done. With bits of this and bits of that from my fabric stash.
 Stars in gold leaf....
 While outside it feels like November. Ice  and frost.Cold winds in April...
 "The house was very quiet, and the fog..we are in November now....pressed against the windows like an excluded ghost.." 
-E.M. Forster, Howard's End.
 Sari ribbon  stitched into Sawtooth Stars...
 Hail and rain and Snow billowing outside. Great Spring weather.....
 Sari strips turned into stars....
 "Quiet is here and all in me...." -Richard Matheson
 No people. Just quiet.
 And rain. 
 "Quiet is the new loud..." -Joe Robtail
 Frost on rain in the April Showers
 Boardwalks empty....
 Bring on the solitude. Bring on the creative spirit..........
 "Solitude is the house of peace..."
                         -T.F.Hodge (From Within I Rise: Spiritual Triumph.....)
