Another shot from inside Jaisalmer Fort.Colourful handicrafts,embroidered bedcovers etc. on display in a shot inside the Fort.The light was very low here and we were in a hurry so the shot is not of very good quality but I thought my friends would find it interesting all the same.:-)
This was a weekend for indoor fun. I actually woke up to this and immediately grabbed my camera... :)
Making good of a dire situation in the entrance to a DLR (Docklands Light Railway) station.

was cutting out some frame matting for a church project and
laid one on the bedspread. decided to capture the view.
Finally I found a bedcover to our guestroom's bed! This is made by a finnish woman who makes these bedcovers as a hobby. I'm surprised these colours matched so well!!
This bed was about 5 years without a bedcover, because anything I tried didn't match well, that wallpaper is so dominant.
Wow! Yes, indeed! My, but! It was cold here in Chihuahua today and there was a driving icy rain from the South Atlantic strongly blowing in across the brown-earthed waters of the Rio de la Plata. An unseasonably 10 C, as my commiserating hosts feelingly pointed out. I'd just as soon not have know. It felt even colder, but I did have a dip in the Arroyo and found the water at about 19 C quite warm. In fact it was rather warmer in the water than out!
Anyway, on the banks of the river there's everywhere a nice profusion of these Slender Dayflowers. Of course, Commelina erecta is found throughout temperate and non-temperate zones the globe-around. I always much enjoy its so heavenly Blue. On occasion I've posted photos of various Commelinas, but not of one just popping into flower. Presumably it'd have come out entirely if the air and a single ray of sunlight had been warmer. I'd crawled up out of the warm water into the chill of the wind and my hands trembled as my faithful Sony took an acceptable picture of our Zygomorph.
Commelinas were named by great Carolus Linnaeus for uncle and nephew Jan (1629-1692) and Caspar (1667-1734) Commelijn of Amsterdam. The elder was one of the founders of the fine Hortus there, the younger succeeded him. Both were highly influential editors of botanical works (e.g. Rheede van Drakenstein's immense flora of the Malabar Coast to which I refer frequently in these my photos). Linnaeus was grateful to the Commelijns for he used almost 300 of their description in his own famous classification.
The chill has me typing this under bedcovers, so I can't be as precise as I'd like to be...
THANKS for viewing my photos, I really appreciate you taking the time, and for the faves and comments you make THANK YOU..
Excerpt from the plaque:
Quilted Bedcover: the flowering tree on this bedcover is perched on a grassy mound with small flowers. The tree is covered in stylized European garden flowers with large curly leaves, similar to those on embroidery from the 1600s. The flower vases in the inner corners are in the style of Dutch masters’ paintings.
another flea market find, this unwanted doll.
broken, but still sprouting rosebuds.
hope.
**chai the smooth saluki has been having cluster seizures in the middle of the night.
the first night, tues, he was seizing I was holding on tight, jones the basenji was sitting up from the end of the bedcovers, pissed at the confusion. schubert the standard poodle who has moved out of his daddy's room downstairs because, I think, marina has moved in, was trying to sleep in a cuddler on the floor. in comes shrieking marina the podenco, jumping into the middle of chai and me, still holding/seizing, and she gave us screaming barks.
last night was a good one for chai, but schubert, still pissed, went up and down the stairs in the dark. finally about 6 am, he stood downstairs and barked; I turned off the alarm, let him outside, and when he came back in I reset the alarm, went to bed followed upstairs by schubert.
this is our life.
***Vive le France
J'espère que vous pouvez les attraper tous.
They take over your house and they have no shame.
I love them.

I made this by recycling a vintage bedcover and the pocket is made from a lovely thick and soft crocheted piece.
It would suite a 2-4 year old
A Macro Mondays submission on the topic "checkered". This is a piece of flyscreen with water filling most of the holes. A red bedcover was placed behind the flyscreen to produce an interesting pattern.

Presentation of products, using my artwork: Orange Shades of Ornithogalum Dubium. Printed @ RB website.
Inspired by the Orange color shades of Ornithogalum Dubium.
February, March 2023. Aquarelle. ( Without using the pencil )
Every day I look at the orange flowers on the table.
Flowers which live in water for several weeks.
Their bloom changes from day to day.
I feel how the inspiration permeates me and the desire to paint them.
After four weeks, I start devoting my time to them, a few mornings.
While painting the flowers change.. and some new ones bloom.
In photographs:
work processes, in a temporary work environment at my parents' house.
In the mirror I am the one taking the picture.
Some of my paintings hang on the walls.
My sources of inspiration come from my life.

Not quite put together. I think I need to add polka dots, more orange and blue and possibly purple fabrics. My stash is sorely lacking in purple. Not my favorite color but it might be a lovely addition to this quilt top.
My mother is 81, she is very kind and adorable old woman, everybody loves her.she rose 6 children and was a painstaking person in her life. despite the pain of her hands, she likes to be a useful person in this age as well and usually does some handicrafts. she made this knitting 20 years ago for my son's bed cover.
It is COLOR which makes us what we are..
Otherwise, are we anything but blind beggar?
I love the colors around me.
I love the contrast around me.
I love the celebrations around me.
I think, God Himself loves the color. That’s why He has created the world so much colorful.
Who are we not to love the color?
What's there not to love??

Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh.
Chicken? What chicken?
I came across the latest "Hidden Side" Comic the other day. The Minifig was a bikeresse, who wears a pair of jeans with chunky keychain and studded belt, a necklace with a hare's skull, and a sleeveless jeans jacket, what we call Kutte in german. That was enough for me to buy it, and was very pleased when I saw the backside of the Kutte. A hare's skull in a circle wih the words "Hares of Havoc" around it. Wow.
Had wanted to take a picture of her with a dirtbike in the dirt, and was quite grumpy when me favourite patch of mud was covered in feathers, as if Frau Holle had been airing her bedcovers. On our way back (this is more or less our daily walk along river Schwentine) inspiration struck.

i have to say this very sheer cotton voile makes a fantastic summer bedcover. the duvet is lighter/cooler/more breathable than any bedsheet i own. they should make line of sheets out of this. i suppose there's a durability issue. at least a blanket or topsheet line.
