“I Wheeled With the Stars, My Heart Broke Loose on the Wind”
Janine Ibbini April 1, 2025 Artists,Janine Ibbini,Musings,Prompts,Revealed Quilts,Revolution,Uncategorized

Elfriede Grooten March 4, 2025 Elfriede Grooten,Musings,Prompts,Revolution,Uncategorized
                                                        Janine has already told us that Revolution and Rotation have a common origin in Latin. Jacque’s poignant opinion has opened the eyes of all of us, I think, to what is going on in America at the moment. At the time, we didn’t know anything about the terrible meeting

The Prompt is Revolution
Janine Ibbini February 11, 2025 Artists,Janine Ibbini,Musings,Prompts,Revolution,Uncategorized

Layers of Language
Janine Ibbini February 7, 2025 Artists,Change of Language,Janine Ibbini,Musings,Revealed Quilts,Uncategorized
There are many aspects of language. Spoken. Written. Body. Facial Expressions. When it gets right down to the small details and you’re trying your best to communicate with another, in my experience, all these aspects of communication matter a lot. Nowadays we have Goggle and other apps on our phones

Change of Mind with Meditation
Janine Ibbini November 26, 2024 Artists,Change of Mind,Janine Ibbini,Musings,Prompts,Revealed Quilts,Uncategorized
This year, I embarked on a journey to try many new (to me) things, such as acupuncture, wild cold-water swimming, and ice baths. One of the first things I tried was guided breathwork meditation. I admit, I was very sceptical at first. Over the years, I’ve had many false starts

Flooding
Elfriede Grooten June 18, 2024 Elfriede Grooten,Musings,Uncategorized
When I woke up last night, I heard it raining.  Moments later it started to rain heavily. A while later it turned into torrential rain. My thought went out to our garden, given the heavy rain, all the plants should be flat, I thought!  This morning the damage was not

Lisa Jenni May 22, 2024 Color Change,Lisa Jenni,Musings,Uncategorized
My fascination with color led me to Bauhaus designer and artist Josef Albers. He experimented extensively with the interactions of color and how the perception of them can change it. Scientists know, people perceive color differently and it changes from one person to the next. Many will remember the controversy
