today, on mother’s day eve, i took refuge in the familiar land of bookmaking and accomplishment, creating a journal to accompany autoquiltography one. a container of irregular, asymmetrical pages
wrapped in a placemat because table linens are the stuff of which all of my autoquiltography pieces are made
lined in fabric that conjures images of gold threads navigating a natural terrain filled with options and possibilities, the threads randomly leading to places of safe exposure where mother and child retreat, commune, learn.

now you know I always find myself cringing - sometimes more than others - when I see someone has commented on somebody’s blog “how did I ever live before I found you” but here I am typing it, although not quite the same — how did I FEEL before I found you?
Incomplete … as if I hadn’t found you yet …
well, how can I top that? What a genuinely loving compliment. Acey , both you and Jeanne are very gifted with language. I was gonna say, I really like the journal, and when I come to visit can you teach me?
Thank you Jeanne for the really kind and bolstering comment on my blog. I felt it deep down to my toes. I hope your Mother’s day was/is full of love.
acey, i have spent hours trying to think of something eloquently appropriate to say in response to your comment, but the only thing that will do is “Thank you.”
that, and “Right back atcha.”

yes, laney. when you come visit, we’ll have art camp every single day (with frequent mint mulep breaks, of course). you know we will.
in the meantime, you might want to consider taking an online journal-making class from Sue B: http://webpages.charter.net/sbleiweiss/journalmakingclass.htm
