I have decided to put this year’s pylon Christmas card on here, as only the second blog post in 4 months. I am nowhere near having a new site but have clearly dropped out of the blogging habit, but for the people still following this blog, and beacause this card simply doesn’t fit well on Instagram, I am post it here first.
The turning twist
of the weaving wires
And the distracting glows
made to hold our gaze
Can tangle our threads
into knotted desires
Or be woven well
into blessed days
So may your festive raiments be made
from what love inspires
And may there be peace so all our sheep
may safely graze.
The time taken to create the Bradford Woolly Heritage C.I.C (see http://www.bradwan.com ) meant I decided to do a really quick card this year, which obviously resulted in it taking 4 times longer than last year. Below is what I used. From the top left clockwise: Photo I by Leeds Liverpool Canal East of Apperley Bridge 5/12. New star origami I made 9/12. Bit oI drew for my Christmas card in 2005. A sheep I drew, as a link to St Blaise and my Bring Back Blaise Festival.
To make the image from the bits I used the free graphics program called GIMP (FNARR FNARR!) again.
I wrote the poem on the 11thDec. 2019
