Yesterday
was our Waldorf school’s annual May Faire, and in honor of the season, I
made this needlefelted wool wall hanging of a May Pole dance to sell at
my booth. I had started out intending to felt a different scene
entirely, but the excitement of May Faire got me thinking about the May
Pole dance, and it took shape from there. As I was making the pole I
decided it should have roots, and then branches with a tiny little
bird’s nest tucked in them. The girls are from all over the world,
dancing together upon the earth to weave a unified thing of beauty for
everyone. The woman who bought it really loved it, and I hope she enjoys
it in her home.
