I'm joining you in dream land, my friends! Last night I had the most marvelous dream, and all of our little group was in it (aside from Cosette, I'm so sorry!). We were discussing politics quite passionately, and melting down silver and sewing flags and little red white and blue things to wear on our hats and vests and it was all very lovely. Very moving.
And it reminded me that not too long ago, I found this red material in my closet while I was looking for my sewing things. It was three pieces of red fabric, half stitched together, so I thought perhaps I'd used it to practice making my handstitching neater? But now I think it's a sign!
I was originally going to use it to make a vest, but after Enjolras's post, I don't think it's meant for that. I think it's meant for us.
I thought, since some of us are a little hesitant about tattoos, I could get some similarly coloured red elastic fabric and make bracelets for us! We could wear them to events and protests and things, or just around to show camaraderie.
As to the red fabric, I'm going to finish sewing it together and hang it on my wall, I think. It seems to precious to do anything else with.
