I love what one of our members (Mikiko Takase) recently wrote about making the decision to go through a doorway, not knowing all the ramifications, and doing it anyway. She was referring to joining this group, Cloth in Common. We are nearly finished with four years together, and it has been a truly wonderful and rich experience. I wish more people in this world were willing to open doors to those unlike themselves.

The quilt I am making for this round has an open door, looking into a mysterious darkness. None of us knows what the future holds, but it’s good to go forward boldly.

I miss traveling. I’ve taken many photos of doorways here and there. The two above were familiar to Vincent van Gogh.

The one below would be recognized by Marie Antoinette. (Minus the fire extinguisher.)
