Our grandson is studying in japan for his Junior year of college and was in Tokyo when this terible disaster hit. He is safe, thank God and came home yesterday. It is very bad over there and my heart goes out to the people that have to face this tragedy. Our entire family has donated to the releif fund. Through the Embassy and the College we were able to get our GS home to us. He wants to go back as he loves the people and the culture and says it si a beautiful country.DUSTYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07442653577617006447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4914471702542919797.post-15082049313648465752011-03-17T08:41:31.723-07:002011-03-17T08:41:31.723-07:00I'm happy to explain my thoughts for Sanctuary...I'm happy to explain my thoughts for Sanctuary's design. And I do plan on blogging about the piece probably after One May Night is completed.<br /><br />I found an image of the motif for the outer border in an antique filet book and as I played with it in different forms, it really looked very wild to me like something growing on its own, not planted and tended by a gardener. In different colors it seemed like it might grow by the sea or on a moor or wild meadow. And some time ago I had found an image of a family by a hearth in another very old set of prints for filet and putting the two together it spoke of how a family gathered at home should be like a sanctuary.<br /><br />So the outer wild border is like the storms of life to me and the family is in the midst of it and sheltered from it by the strength they draw from each other.Kathy Bungardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04436749525712620426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4914471702542919797.post-40105786057606044352011-03-16T13:11:16.153-07:002011-03-16T13:11:16.153-07:00Beautiful.

We have many friends in Japan, this will go a long way toward soothing my soul and creating a remembrance piece.
