This I Believe

Two rectangles are woven on our School Loom, felted in the washing machine, and then stitched together on the sewing machine. The handle is made on the Incredible Rope Machine and hand sewn to the bag sides. This is just one example of the weaving being done by the teenagers in our Wednesday evening weaving group. I love the large, oversize plaid. The yarn is Brown Sheep Top of the Lamb Worsted.

When NPR airs another installment of "This I Believe", I'm always interested in what the person says. This past week, one remark really made sense, and ever since I've been paying attention. It went something like this: "I'll know what I believe, by what I do." Perhaps another take on my mothers admonishment that, "Your deeds speak louder than your words." So during this time of spring renewal, I'm trying to be mindful and especially critical of how I choose to spend my days. "Do I believe in what I do?"
