... a wallhanging, and I tried to compose a Haiku to go with it:


sunlight and shadow

improvisation and plan

they go hand in hand

It's Been 10 Years




The February sun is shining through these small 
window-quilts,

with these I celebrate a bit the fact 
that it's been 10 years this month 
since I started this blog,
this quilt-diary here.
I enjoyed doing this immensely,
still do,
and I hope it's the same with you 
when you come to visit me here.

February Star




Since most of us are forced (or willing, or able, or happy ...) to improvise things these days, I thought it would be a good idea to choose an improvised star for this month in 2021.

This one here is completely improvised.

I like the definitions given by the Cambridge Dictionary:

'a performance that is not practiced and that is invented by the performers'

'Improvisation is also the activity of making or doing something that you have not planned, using whatever you find.'

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/improvisation



But for me another aspect of improvisation is an important one: I am listening to whatever is going on around me and I find MY answer to that, and I let this flow into my impromptu activity. If there is a real 'flow' it can be a very rewarding process, 
and a lot of fun.


Happy February!


lots of snow around here this winter ...
