- A major project for me at the moment is developing a creative habit for contemporary quilt-making and related pursuits such as fabric dyeing and surface design. I'm a full-time mom to two active children so making time for creative work can be a small challenge. This blog documents the journey.

What a wonderful quote. You have a beautiful blog, full of integrity and creativity. It's inspiring to read. Thank you.
Did you use Stephen Mitchell's translation of the Tao? It's my favorite.
Thanks for being here.

Hi Barb,
Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoy reading my blog. The verses from the Tao that I posted are from the 1972 translation by Gia-Fu Feng and Jane English. Although, I did stretch artistic licence a bit and used Mitchell's translation of the last line of verse 29.
I look forward to the hatching of your quail family! Good luck keeping the dogs away.
