Detail, "Red Energy -- 1st Chakra," by Sherrie Spangler Size: 17"w x 20" Copyright 2006 |
My daughter mentioned that her Taiji Quan (tai chi) teacher focused on the first chakra -- the red one -- yesterday, and that reminded me of my red chakra quilt that's been hidden in the closet for years. I'm not going to go into chakras here. You can google it if you need to know more, or read about it in wikipedia by clicking here.
So, since we had a nice sunny day with a brilliant blue sky, I unwrapped the quilt and took it outside for a photograph. While I was at it, I snapped a photo of the sky to have on hand when the clouds move back in.
The sky today in Gig Harbor, WA! |
View of Mt. Rainier today. |
I also took this photo of Mt. Rainier towering over the South Puget Sound this afternoon. It was very cold, and people were torn between wanting to linger at the park where I took this photo and wanting to get back in their warm cars.

I've almost convinced myself to shove this one back in the closet and move onto the next one, which would be ORANGE, my favorite color! I'll keep you posted.
Have a colorful day!

Let me be the first of many who undoubtedly will say - Wait! Don't stick that beautiful full of energy quilt back in the closet...send it to me!!! ;-)
I really do think it is fabulous, but if it wasn't the color red you really wanted to fulfill your vision, I totally understand.
Yep, send it to me... vbg
So Sheila, when is your birthday?
I guess that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." I think it is fabulous.
Thank you, Judy. It does look better in the photo than in person.
Not until August, Sherrie, but Judi and I are in the habit of bestowing birthday gifts whenever we get around to it. You could call it very early or very late and I'd never bat an eye! ;-)
