My creativity is always eager for hands on fiber activities and I can be moved by beautiful patterns in fabric as well as by beautiful wools and felts made into patterns or beautiful and useful items. At times, my creativity lapses into quiet solitude and rest, then awakens with renewed energy and promise-both states are vital!
Yes, Kaye, thanks for naming the quiet, solitude and rest. It's so important to allow this for our creativity as well as for ourselves and to trust this quieter time and the renewal that will come. And I love knowing it is fibers, colors and patterns that attract and inspire you. I've been thinking a lot about all the metaphors related to thread and cloth and the ways they seem that much more resonant as I'm crocheting, sewing, and working with fibers.
