@HollyStallcup I'd love to send one! Any other hints as to what your family likes?

Jonah understandably resented the Ninevites, a violent people who ravaged the regions around them and boasted in their own cruelty.

And yet, the sobering lesson of Jonah is this:

We cannot harden our hearts to people,
without also hardening our hearts to God.

I had a student from Ethiopia and she speaks a rare Ethiopian dialect and had immigrated here as a kid. She said she had never heard anyone but her and her mom speak the dialect. I asked her what she'd do if her & her mom were in Starbucks and heard some ppl speaking the dialect

@SarahECozart You're so kind! I wasn't sure about this one at first...

[Carly Payne @CarlyAPayne]

Haven't posted new weavings in a while, but here are a few I've made recently. If you're interested in one, let me know!

I call this one Riverbed.

@SarahECozart Thank you, these colors are a personal fav!

[Carly Payne @CarlyAPayne]

I forgot this one!

And finally, one that got me out of a creativity slump. I still feel in that slump a bit, but I'm sticking with my mantra that bad art is better than no art.
