details

what would your details be? a colorful caterpillar amidst leaves and roses?

handstitches, pockets and tiny glass beads?


details on an old curtain stitched and shirred to create another version of the same material

details of a dream expressed on a cafe's wall


or details printed on a baby's skin that will forever belong to him and that will be the footprints he will leave wherever he goes.

when we tell a story, the details make it a different story from all the other stories.  our lives are marked by the details that would add up to a quilt of images that we hope we can always remember...



do you witness the details of your "love" as accurately as the bees do with their flowers?



we are not a boring pattern if we look closely.  if we call forth silence, beauty will unfold before our unbelieving eyes.

look at yours.  what are these details that make you a work of art?
