For my interpretation of this year’s challenge, I chose to build a representation of our collective humanity.  To celebrate our diversity as well as our continual path to complete equality.

Humanity

 

Every shade of skin

    Represented Within

 

Standing Together in 

    Unity for Equality

 

Our fists raised high

     To be Recognized

Our voices heard 

     And Acknowledged

 

In Community 

   We are better together

Standing Side by Side

 

Embracing our Diversity 

    And at the 

          center is 

                    LOVE

Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty. -Anne Herbert

 

 

Alohi

 

Love & Kindness 

circling all around.

As we move

through life… 

Full of vivid color

caring encircling

compassion and

containing a fire 

within us all.

                                                          Circling through the Seasons

                                                        Spring awakens new growth...
                                                                Budding flowers and trees

                                                        Summer full of blooms...
                                                             Watching gardens grow

                                                        Autumn reaping the harvest...
                                                       Shedding leaves carpeting

                                                        Winter the quiet blanket...
                                                       Of snowy slumber

                                                        Seasons circle round...
                                                               And round.

Sweet Home Wisconsin

In 2000, I crocheted my first scrumbles and set them aside until now.  After living in Ohio for two years and Georgia for 10, we moved back to Wisconsin.  Using my original scrumbles and new scrumbles, I created the flora and fauna of my region, Wisconsin. 

 I was born and raised in Wisconsin it is very dear to my heart and it feels good to be home.
