Flax update!!
Small, green flax shoots. They're growing well because we've had rain and mild temperatures.

Beautiful drive from Nashville to the Southeast Fiber Arts Alliance. #fiberarts
4-lane highway is flanked by springtime trees just starting to turn green. The sky is cloudy due to rain in the area.

If you threatened to deport a bishop because they advocated for mercy, you’re not a follower of Jesus Christ.

It's going to take me many years, but I'm working toward a similar project, starting with drafting a pattern for my loom, practicing the weaving and doing the spinning. Thanks for sharing! ❤️

Big fan of this hanging (in the Victoria and Albert Museum) embroidered by nuns in Heiningen, Germany in 1516. It’s a great example of a nun’s theological and classical education on the eve of the Reformation. The name of the prioress ‘D[omi]na Elisabet’ and 58 nuns are embroidered on the piece

Nutrition science is complicated, and it can be hard to separate fact from fiction. In today’s episode, a nutritionist joins us to help answer our audience's questions about viral nutrition claims. Listen here 🎧: buff.ly/3Mut28J
Someone holding a phone in front of a food pyramid. Text says: We recently asked our listeners which dubious health claims they’ve been seeing in their social media feeds. Unsurprisingly, we received a ton of questions about nutrition.
