Saw this shirt today at a native owned booth at our local craft fair. It says: “homeland security - fighting terrorism since 1492”👏🏻 If you want to support their amazing business it’s called Native Winds at nativewinds.com

Texture & color abundance 🤍 A work in progress scrap quilt panel hung on a crochet panel! Why not make a temporary art piece out of my WIP instead of stuffing it in a basket where I might forget to pick it back up again?! #fiberart

Found a free file cabinet on the side of the road, painted it & turned it into a little free flower stand. My thought process is to make it like a little free library, but temporary, and interchangeable. So this week it is flowers, but next week I could fill it with books & relabel it!

Educating myself on indigenous wisdom & ways. I’m so inspired! Also just finished Robin Wall Kimmerer’s The Serviceberry. These books are indispensable to this modern generation. Please, please take the time to read them!

What a privilege it is to be a human, made in the image of God- even w/ all of our faults & failures. No matter what oppressive forces exist, we can act in the FREEDOM that Christ offers to all who would receive it- to push back the forces of evil, pursue love, justice & righteousness TOGETHER 🫶🏼

A high percentage of immigrants to America identify as Christians. When Christian nationalists slander them by calling them “criminals” and “illegals” they are directly disobeying this passage in James 4:11

Some more up-cycled post cards to send to those who are destroying our democracy & abusing the name of Christ as they do it

Also sent some “trash postcards” (up-cycled cereal boxes) to DC to the entire cabinet & I will be spending my Friday nights & Saturday afternoons doing this as regularly as I possibly can. 💪🏻 let’s all keep doing as much as we possibly can, however small it feels. It’s like stones @ Goliath

I am embroidering a series of protest tees so I can wear one nearly every day. This is my second. My first was “resist the oligarchy, fight for freedom” I think I’ll look through protest pictures from this year & pick my favorite quotes from those ✌🏻

Started our memory quilt today. It features scraps of fabric leftover from the clothes I made my daughter & embroidery of one of my favorite “blob people” family portraits drawn by my son. These are the things anchoring me today: family, craft, & making as an act of faith🤍
