Truly a Delight that we once again have access to your 'meanderings'! We have stood quietly at the ready, hoping. Your new vessels are, of course, lovely. Light. A pleasure. Many thanks for the effort.

Your light filled vessels brought joy and wonder! No, I'll never do it myself, but I loved hearing about the marvelous materials you have put to such beautiful use. Coffee filters! Who knew! Your journey into unexpected ideas brought pleasure to us all. Thank you.

The delicacy of the vessels and the shadows cast are amazing. Coffee filters, different fibers, spindle spinning, knitting, sizing(s), what a fascinating idea to delve into, so much to try, experiment with, not to mention the science of it all. You are a wonder! And those blankets on the line! I love them!

The vessel on the table with the morning (?) sun shining through is breath-taking. I am so happy to see you back.

Wonderfully given the light to shine through all you do! Thank you for the ideas and pictures of your work. I like to hold the little vessel in my hands that I have from you because I can Baskets are like that, aren't they?

You might try methyl cellulose- as nice as wheat paste but critters don’t eat it

While I'm no scientist I do know rice paste is acid free. When I did archival print framing I used it to attatch acid free rice paper hinges to hang prints to mat board. They can even be removed without damaging a print by slightly dampening. I'm so sorry you had your stuffing flatted out but happy a few seasons of hibernation have helped fluff you up again. Glad to have you back Sarah.

Reading your posts is a lovely meditation in itself bringing light and joy in the simple act of creative exploration. Thank you for sharing this with us!

Well, I can wait for another time for all the other stories you might, I hope, remember to tell us. I love the vessels -- they are immaculate and so full of potential. But then, I enjoy all your experiments -- the successes and the "back to the drawing board" ones, too. You feature in my day book of good quotes, by the way... "“It’ll be fine” is the kiss of death." Oh, yes.

I love these vessels! They make me want to learn to knit, but I will fight that urge. Crochet maybe?
