Covered in glitter and crumbs. Waking up to maracas and fairy wings. Pockets full of rubber bands and dandelions. Buried under book piles. Dirty hands with homemade kombucha. Coffee in the rain. Waiting for that sacred scrap of silence.

ah weekends. Time for us to just hang out together doing projects and listening to music. Chris and Unity made nutburgers from this fantastic cookbook. They also started a sewing project. Unity's been saying she wants to learn how to make a quilt so they found some odds and ends of fabric and started a shoo fly pattern.
And Brixton? Well any stretch of time that is free turns into the one man band show. I'm telling you, this is the show to see.

the quilt again
So Chris started working on this quilt a while ago. A long while ago.
As in, this quilt predates Brixton.
He actually got pretty far along but then hit a part that was a little repetitive and then stopped.
And you know, when you stop a complicated project like that, it's hard to pick it back up.
Lately, we decided we're going to finish it together. It's much better as a two-person work, as they say in Montessori. So last night we were pressing and stitching together. And this thing is not going to be finished anytime soon. But, it's fun to have a project where we are working side by side.
