These are the lockers I designed for Legopold's Mascot Locker Room: www.flickr.com/photos/95922179@N08/8916097738/
This build is sturdy, but can be improved. The lower lockers are a bit unwieldy.
Hey team how are we all doing?
It be throwback Thursday today and I've finally finished processing a photo taken 2 weeks ago from my trip to Sydney and the Blue Mountains.
Renown for its unique architecture this crazy critter being the Sydney Opera House continues to fascinate and inspire architects all around the world, or so I'm led to believe. This photo was shot from the Milson's Point side with a 70-300mm telephoto lens on a dodgy tripod.
The processing was done like this; firstly the photo was taken into Lightroom where the massively blinding highlights and whites were dulled down. The shadows were raised up a tad too as some parts of the photo were too dark. Then I played around with the colours using the HSL panel until I got the feel that I liked. I aimed to contrast the bluish sky with the orangey/yellow lights inside the building. I cropped the image and fixed up the horizon to make it straight. I then brought the photo into Photoshop and did some noise reduction using Imagenomic's Noiseware Professional software. Finally I cleaned off the image by using a combination of the clone stamp tool, spot healing brush and the brush tool. The most challenging part of this process was to get the image right in camera with the nasty gale forced winds of that night.
Hope you enjoy this one, and as always feel free to use this image in your videos, your website, you blog, print it out, remix it or do whatever you wish with it as per the CC licence.
All the best my people, don't stop shooting.

Toutes les photos ont été faites avec un modeste Samsung.
Merci à celui ci que j'ai épuisé, fini avec du Scotch pour son étanchéité ...
et qui m'a offert une "ouverture" au monde ! ...

Thank you for this one I've exhausted, finished with Scotch for his seal ...
and offered me a "window" to the world!
Finished dinner and on to my second stout the camera is clicking away and the Earth just keeps on preforming majestically.
Irish Blessings to ya all..
i actually finished a couple weeks ago, but wanted to wash it first to get rid of the tailor chalk marks before i showed it off. the marks didn't come completely off (waaaah!) but i'll live.
I started this quilt in Nov. '06...so, it only took 7 months. not bad!
When it was my birthday six months ago, a very dear friend who enjoys photography as much as I do, and knows that I collect beautiful and vintage pieces, gave me a wonderful selection of antique ribbons, buttons, buckles, lace and other fine notions. She also gave me three follow up tins of similar delightful gifts for Christmas.
Those wonderful gifts are what has inspired me to create this series of "Embroider my World" images featuring my vintage bobbin collection. In this case, the wonderfully delicate net baric embroidered with minute blue and pale pink sequins I bought yesterday from a shop that specialises in luxurious and unusual fabrics. I could hardly wait to use it! The fabric was manufactured in Milan. I have accessorised them on a 1930s embroidered tablecloth with two Dewhurst's Sylko Peach Rose reels of cotton which dates from between 1938 and 1954 and a small Edwardian cotton reel of soft Kingfisher Blue made by J. P. Coats.
Belle Vue Mill, commonly known as Dewhurst’s, was built by Thomas Dewhurst in 1828. It opened in 1829 as John Dewhurst & Sons and was one of Skipton’s largest spinning and weaving mills. The mill’s position next to the Leeds Liverpool Canal meant that raw cotton could be shipped in by boats from Liverpool. Finished goods would then be sent back the same way ready for distribution. Coal to power the machine’s steam engines was also delivered by barge. In 1897 Dewhurst’s was bought by the English Sewing Cotton Co. It continued to produce Sylko, one of the mill’s most famous products. It was produced in over 500 colours and sold throughout the world. Sylko cottons are still available at haberdashers today.
In 1802 James Coats set up a weaving business in Paisley. In 1826 he opened a cotton mill at Ferguslie to produce his own thread and, when he retired in 1830, his sons, James & Peter, took up the business under the name of J. & P. Coats. In 1952 J. & P. Coats and the Clark Thread Co. merged to become Coats & Clark's. Today, the business is known as the Coats Group.
First of all, this turned out quite nice. I want to do more elaborate pieces like this.
Second...
I finished writing Spider-Pip #3! :D
Woo.
As promised it will have Jeklarr's Dr. Doom and TITAN-BRICKS' Mr. Titan-Tastic. Also, I said Titan's character would only get a cameo, but it kind of evolved into an equal role with Doom.
Whoops. :P
So stay tuned because the semi-daily parts will start very soon. ;D
This is so NOT what I had imagined my first turquoise picture would be! It was lying around half-finished when I started the challenge, and so I finished it..... It's watercolour - the blue is a Dr Ph Martin's Radiant Watercolour, which, if you haven't tried them, I would recommend. Brilliant colours, though not lightfast. The gold is Quinacridone Gold, one of my favourite colours, and is a Windsor and Newton pan watercolour.
This was my very last sunset photographed in California. The very next afternoon I packed up my belongings and moved to Central Florida.
oh, i forgot to take the measurements, but it's around 15" x 22"
fabric used: kona cotton charcoal, parisville & neptune by tula pink
batting: 80 cotton/20 poly kyoto batting
this quilt was quite a challenge for me in several ways: the free form overall design is a bit out of my comfort zone, i tried paperpiecing the "mini" uj (about 5.5"), made the first pleats (and even double pleats) in my life, pieced - not appliquéd - set in circles...and finally dared to cut in my precious tula pink fabrics
i tried to loosen up the strict symmetry of the circles with some fairly loose circle-ish quilting randomly in the upper left...very loose reminicence of topographic lines
_________________________________
dear partner, although i've sewn this quilt at least 5 x backwards (read: ripped so many seams), it is still not perfect...but it's still the best i can piece & quilt at this time (and i've learned so much while working on this quilt...!) i hope i got the right clues from your mosaic/photostream and you will like it :)
Where to old tractors go when they come to the end of their useful lives .... they become garden focal points. Found paint blistering and weary in grounds of Marle Place Gardens, Kent, England. but making a wonderful weathered feature in retirement. Has the beating of a garden gnome anytime.

My lovely one
He is not especially eager to pose
But he knows the drill
Tries to escape the photoshoot by ignoring my sweet commands like Please Aiko, lay down or stay
He just looks carefully at me and walks past me, but when I continue to get him away from me by throwing snowballs to him he finds it is OK to lay down, for a bit that is.
He is such a character that dog
And yes, this is taken this morning, lots of snow in my winter wonderland, huge snowflakes falling down and makes everything so silent out there
It's quite lovely actually
So happy I have my home office, there is always someone with bad tires out there
Lol
Four finished pincushions - decorated and stuffed using "useless" felt scraps from my other projects. They are so pleasingly chunky!
Always feels good to take care of unfinished business...

This summer I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos. I recently got through my initial sifting through my photos and I'm now ready to share some of my favourites.
Ljubljana, Slovenia.
I finished my HR Quilt Along top! It took my husband and I almost two hours to arrange the blocks so there weren't any border or center squares adjacent. We were starting to think it was impossible! I'm piecing the back this week, and then! While all you guys are machine quilting, this will sit in a pile, #3 in line to be hand quilted. I'm pretty sure I'll have it done in about 2 years. :)
Finished Venom Snake more or less, still would like to get a different uniform, and he needs a less anachronistic weapon, but I'm very happy with him
