the universe conspires


Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.
— Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

Two five-point kiku herringbone stars at top and bottom; one star from top and bottom have layered tips at the equator.

It's terribly hard to photograph red accurately!

Thread wrap in "red current"—a deep burgundy; S10 division in matching perle #5. Embroidery in ten shades of reds, rusts, and browns. The quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson is in the bell box along with brass rings that make a quiet traditional rattle. Circumference: 11 inches / 28 cm; diameter: 3.5 inches / 8.9 cm. Completed 14 September 2012 (no. 154).

Sold to benefit Kiva.org.
