Gray....and greatness..

Today  I stood at my kitchen window , thinking that  someone (body)  had  given  me a box of crayons that only contained  various shades of gray, and I had  ,  somehow coloured my backyard (which was once. so vibrant and full of colour) with , just that...shades of gray !. Mmmmmm , really had to purcolate  this pallette in my head. But , as you probably all know, there is that moment when  there is a tiny epiphany ...and that's what happened to me. My friend, Heidi Wulfratt, is an amazing fibre artist and you can google her name and be overwhelmed by her talent and all that she has created. Heidi 's eyes are failing and glaring light makes it almost impossible for her to see.....she is a very young woman ...so when we have gray days, baise days, her eyes come alive and embrace all the colours that are out there. She has generously shared this with us and I will , on a very gray, baise days try hard to see the "colour "., as Heidi has done..she has shown me that there is always an upside !
