We are all ONE Child...
Spinning Through the Mother Sky.
I chose this Native American Proverb as the
basis for my CQR in connection with Jude's "What If" challenge, along with the theme of connection through cycles.
I painted the sun and moon with metallic Lumiere paint on ivory silk dupioni and have chosen to let the edges ravel. Right now the elements are just tacked down, but I plan on adding quite a bit of stitching in and around the entire block.

hey, my e mail is working! nice! love the painting idea....
Hi Cathie - am very smitten with the proverb you chose and love the way you are interpreting it. You did a marvelous job on the sun - thought I should especially mention that since you have revealed it is not your favorite sort of weather or celestial presence.
That pink project isn't actually a CQR, it's just strongly associated with Jude since she provided nearly all of the fabric I used. Am actually in a bit of a frozen stage with CQR - think I may have gotten too overstimulated to think straight and now need some quiet time to regroup.
Was thinking of you yesterday as I sorted through my pile of Van Gogh experiment fabrics and threads...
You've chose a great CQR subject, how cool to use this as your motivation. The raggy sun is great and I can't wait to see how you take off with this... the Shawnee of WV are my people!!!
I love the proverb, it is beautiful and makes you ponder. The block is beautiful,also.
what a GREAT proverb! I especially love the line, "Spinning Through the Mother Sky" - so appropriate. :)
Love the proverb Cathie and looks like you are off to a beautiful start! Will enjoy seeing where it goes from here!
