According to Wikipedia, Buddha was asage on whose teachings Buddhism was founded. He is believed to have lived and taught mostly in eastern India sometime between the sixth and fourth centuries BC.

The word Buddha means “awakened one” or “the enlightened one”. “Buddha” is also used as a title for the first awakened being in an era. In most Buddhist traditions, Siddhartha Gautama is regarded as the Supreme Buddha.

The exact date of Buddha’s Birthday is based on the Asian lunisolar calendars, and tends to move around a bit, but it is still a day to honor a great legend. This canvas that you see here is one by Lani and if you have a Sharpei sharing your life, this would be the one for you! and if I had my Buddha piece from the framers, I would be sharing a picture of that too! When I drop off a piece from framing, unless I really have a deadline, I tell them really no hurry…plus I need time to drive to Pasadena to pick it up.

and here is my Buddha kitty, which goes with “if it fits…I sits”

and until next time…keep on stitching
