Torch the Witch Booklet 1 is a controversial publication that has sparked a heated debate in recent times. The booklet, which advocates for the eradication of witches, has raised concerns about discrimination and violence against individuals who identify as witches or practice witchcraft. The main idea behind Torch the Witch Booklet 1 is the promotion of fear and hatred towards a specific group of people. The authors of the booklet argue that witches pose a threat to society, claiming that their practice of magic is dangerous and can cause harm. They provide supposedly anecdotal evidence and stories to support their claims, painting witches as evil beings who must be eliminated. However, it is important to note that witchcraft is not a monolithic practice, and individuals who identify as witches come from diverse backgrounds and belief systems.
If you have a rail with a centre overlap, measure the total width of the rail excluding finials, then measure the overlap and add the two measurements together.
IMPORTANT Always use a metal tape to take your measurements rather than a fabric or plastic tape, which may stretch and result in inaccurate measurements.

However, it is important to note that witchcraft is not a monolithic practice, and individuals who identify as witches come from diverse backgrounds and belief systems. Many practitioners of witchcraft use their craft for healing, empowerment, and spiritual exploration. The demonization of witches in Torch the Witch Booklet 1 perpetuates harmful stereotypes and can lead to real-world harm and discrimination.
Combining Fabric Art With Zentangle? Believe it!
At some point, you would think that I would stop being surprised by the variety of art forms that exist. The diversity never ceases to amaze me, and that’s surely one reason that we all love art so much. For example, I’m fascinated with both art quilts and Zentangle®, but I never considered combining the two. It takes an artist with vision, like Nysha Oren Nelson, to conceive such ideas and bring them to fruition. Nysha is featured in the April/May issue of Quilting Arts Magazine.

Zentangle + Fabric Art = Magic by Nysha Oren Nelson
| Detail from “Zentangle Book in a Box” |
“Zentangle Book in Box” began with the idea of creating quilted pages held together to use as a reference and inspiration for free-motion quilting. I knew I could also use it as a teaching tool in free-motion quilting and Zentangle classes. The box housing the quilt pages was pure serendipity.
It started several years ago when my partner suggested I take the millions of quilted samples I had created since 2006 and make a larger work with them. Indeed, many were quite worthy of being seen, but I couldn’t think of a clear way to make it happen. The idea was filed into the recesses of my mind, and I moved on.
About this same time I discovered the art of bookmaking. As a book collector, the idea of creating books of my own was intriguing. I tried making several different types of books using paper. There were lots of pages to fill with sketches, patterns, and notes, yet the size was restricted to a single sheet of paper and therefore limited. I also made a few altered books, taking an existing book and modifying it with cuts and drawings. I got caught up in making niches and carving multiple pages. While I enjoyed the journey with paper, I missed quilting and fabric.
At the same time, I discovered Zentangle. I’ve always loved patterns, and working with Zentangles was a great fit. Here was a method encouraging focus in the meditative sense. In 2013, I took a course and became a certified Zentangle Teacher. I was especially excited to meet and study with Maria Thomas and Rick Roberts. At the training I saw a lot of Maria’s work up close, in which she took old items and transformed them with tangle patterns. She mentioned finding old picture frames and reworking them by adding tangles to the damaged areas. As she was talking, I couldn’t help thinking of a box that was gathering dust in my closet. When I got home, I started to sand, paint, and cover the box with tangle patterns. When done, I realized the box could store a set of quilt sandwiches. Then I thought, what if the sandwiches were stitched together into an accordion book in its own little box?! Neat!~N.O.N.
Neat, indeed! In Quilting Arts Magazine, Nysha goes on to explain exactly how he quilted the Zentangle designs for his book.

The publication raises questions about the ethical responsibility of disseminating such content. While freedom of speech is a cornerstone of democratic societies, promoting hate speech and inciting violence against a particular group is not only morally wrong but also goes against principles of equality and human rights. It is crucial for individuals and communities to critically evaluate the content they consume and challenge harmful narratives that target marginalized groups. Education and open dialogue can help debunk misconceptions and foster empathy and understanding. Instead of supporting publications like Torch the Witch Booklet 1, it is important to advocate for inclusivity, tolerance, and respect for diversity..
