I started sewing a curtain for my half circle window in my new house. The whole project was a suggestion for me to heal my lower three chakras. I don't know much about chakras, but I've been working for the last 7 years to heal. The western medical doctors I have spent thousands of dollars on haven't been able to help me. When I started turning towards alternative medicine I started having break throughs. So, here I am doing a craft project with red, orange, and yellow in an attempt to heal.

This project reminded me of my dad, he passed away 6 months ago. At that time my cousin shared a photo of a sunset with me and it touched my heart. Both of my parents have passed away and it is like the setting sun. They are gone but I can still see them. I remember what they taught me, how they lived their lives, what was important to them, and how they cared about me.

Another idea I have been considering which I've been told is a Native American idea is "Father Sky." The atmosphere in which we move through. It protects us from the sun, provides us oxygen, and supports water's ability to move. Then I started thinking of the environment that my father created for me to live in. It's a big complicated mess that has left deep wounds in me. 

There you have it. How a red, orange, and yellow craft project inform my healing journey.
