Moving on to testing more stitches on fabric photos. This is my direction now, not to be distracted. Looking back on my mind map I am shifting about in the sphere of “goneness”, “empty rooms”, ” questions”, “memory” and “loss”. This is leading me to loose ends, unanswered questions, annoying memories, knowing that there will always be loose ends in my family.

Stitching is a good way to work, piercing the cloth, in and out, mulling over, searching as I sew. I am not sure about these stitches as they mostly block out rather than explore. I like the hanging threads. They are loose ends. Now see what happened in my next post!
