Just some of the background shots for "The Note"
This quite a fun, yet complicated foray into the field of scenes and forced perspective.
There are 6 different sources of light for the build (3 main lights, 2 booklights for the window in the kitchen, one for the window in the hall, one for the picture).
There are also multiple instances of forced perspective (which is supposed to be as subtle as possible), the back yard, the hallway, the back room, and the photograph on the wall.
Overall, I am quite happy with how the final product turned out :)

The post-dark age mad purchase rush has finally settled down. I spent the first half of the year panic-buying LEGO sets, and now I'm experiencing a bad, bad case of buyer's remorse.
I never really expected to go back to collecting and playing with LEGO. I don't know, it's like a brick (ha. ha.) hit me out of nowhere and the next thing I know, I'm picking up boxes and boxes of LEGO at the toy store as if they were cheap candy. I strayed away from my core interest themes and bought a lot of sets out of curiosity and just for the heck of it (6193 Castle Building Set, anyone?).
While updating my inventory last week, I realized that by recklessly buying lots of small- and mid-sized sets over the past six months, I've missed out on the big ones (e.g. Cafe Corner) that I really wanted but have always dismissed as too expensive.
So now I trimmed down my to-acquire list for the rest of the year to a semi-manageable three big sets. I'm planning to sell some of my other old and new sets as well. Not an easy thing to do, really. I'm still having a hard time stopping myself from going to the LEGO section every time I pass by a toy store.

Playing the piano has long been an act,
of great grandeur.
From the greatest composers of all time,
including Ludwig van Beethoven and all the rest.
Playing the piano well is an and will be,
an eternally respectable practice,
not to mention a signal of intelligence as well.

NK 1505 A4 1964
In the first part of the book, Mr. Alexander discusses the process by which a form is adapted to the context of human needs and demands that has called it into being. He shows that such an adaptive process will be successful only if it proceeds piecemeal instead of all at once. In the second part, Mr. Alexander presents a method by which the designer may bring his full creative imagination into play, and yet avoid the traps of irrelevant preconception. He shows that, whenever a problem is stated, it is possible to ignore existing concepts and to create new concepts, out of the structure of the problem itself, which do correspond correctly to what he calls the subsystems of the adaptive process. By treating each of these subsystems as a separate subproblem, the designer can translate the new concepts into form. The form, because of the process, will be well-adapted to its context, non-arbitrary, and correct.

see Lawrence Campbell, M.B.E., studied elocution and dramatic art at the Polytechnic Hall in London and began his career on the English stage in 1888. He left London for health reasons in 1893 to stay with his relatives, Mr. and Mrs. F. Bourne in Davenport, Tasmania. The following year he came to Sydney and began to teach elocution.
Lawrence Campbell advertised himself as a teacher of elocution and an instructor in public speaking, and had rooms in Paling's Building, and later the Equitable Building, on George Street, Sydney. He held a presidency of the Australasian Elocutionary Association, and was involved with the London College of Music. He was also president of the Speech Association. His pupils participated in both local examinations and the elocution portion of the Trinity College of Music exams.
Small world! Dad took me to a Macquarie St Specialist for elocution when I was little, I tended to mumble. It was said once, by "Big Billy", that I mumbled "Go in a hole"...
A note from an old was a friend...
Another perfect day - for reading books, that is! And not just any books but books about books - and bookshops, even floating bookshops!
"There are books that are suitable for a million people, others for only a hundred. There are even remedies - I mean books — that were written for one person only ... A book is both medic and medicine at once. It makes a diagnosis as well as offering therapy. Putting the right novels to the appropriate ailments: that’s how I sell books."
So says Monsieur Perdu, who runs a bookshop from a beautifully restored barge in the Seine, in "The Little Paris Bookshop". He calls it a 'literary apothecary' because he possesses a rare gift for sensing which books will soothe the troubled souls of his customers.
"The Bookshop That Floated Away" is another good story - a memoir, really - about a bookseller and her books. And there are several more I've read: "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society", "The Bookshop", "Keep the Aspidistra Flying", and the very first one I ever read and still love the most, Helene Hanff's "84 Charing Cross Road".
They say the movie is never as good as the book, but if you love to watch movies set in bookshops, you will love "84 Charing Cross Road", "The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society", "The Bookshop", and "Keep The Aspidistra Flying" (released under the title "A Merry War").
I'm right now reading "The Little Paris Bookshop". If you know if it was made into a movie, and where I can get hold of it, please let me know.

I am just getting back into cross stitch and embroidery after a 10 year break. The new work out there is so interesting and inspiring that I have decided to create my own series of cross stitch pictures based on things that I say to my son. Every time I utter one I realise that I am turning in to my mother!
Note one is "Don't say what say pardon" , charted at www.stitchpoint.com.

Wearing vintage sweater with lace collar, conducting research and drinking tea.
the plane, a 737 was spotless inside. Not a mark, on surfaces or fabric (compared to somewhat shabby marks and wear and tear on US airline interiors). Not one dead trapped insect stuck in a windowed coffin between the inside and outside window of your seat (look next time, and how DO they get there to begin with).
Soon after takeoff we bank to the right to head south across the coast of sydney and the state of new south wales (NSW), over canberra (the national capitol area) into melbourne in the state of Victoria (VIC).
"Afternoon refreshments" in economy class said the announcement once in the air. Wow. Complementary wine and beer (mixed drinks A$6). Ignoring the fact the beer includes Fosters things were good. The "snacks" provided were good too. A joint packet of cashews and apricot. Large portions. Good quality. As the ingredients list, contents 100% cashews. Yum.
Cabin staff, in economy, smiles, friendly, want to help clearly.
Also walked around offering apples as snacks. Good apples. In a huge basket that must have had about 30 apples in it. I wanted to take a picture but I was laughing at the sight.
I LOVE the orange tablemat thing they give out too. It's a perforated nice-feel absorbant material. Its a tablemat. It's also a bag for trash afterwards so as they walk through doing pickup it takes seconds. It's also a napkin. It's a great tablematnapkinbag idea.
It also contains inside a wetwipe and stirrer for drinks that's twice the size/length of the US ones.
Sunsets. I've noticed the sunrises and sunsets occur very quickly here. Like within 15 mins and it's suddenly light, or dark. Must be the hemisphere and season (last week of winter). It's chilly enough at night i had to go buy a coat. My fault for thinking australia, sunny, its august, it will be hot.
Flight time 90 mins. Sydney to Melbourne. Quantas CityFlyer. $
Airport. Terminal 3 sydney. Bigger than National (DCA). Quieter but I realised its the people who go about their airporty stuff with less of a presence or noise. Folks just a few seats away on a cellphone have what appears to be a habit of covering their mouth with their other hand so their calls are not public (and hence quieter). A full flight doesn't have a gate boarding seat area where there are no free seats. Even the gate agent counter area is turned 90 degrees from the US standard so folks queueing are lining up in the area not out into the corridor. Terminal 3 is dedicated to quantas domestic flights. From arriving to boarding was never asked for any photo id. Why does showing some form of unverifable photo id help us with flights in the US?
New Zealand Maori queen laid to rest today. Queen Te Atairangikaahu (Dame Te Ata) reigned for 40 years, lacking any constitutional powers but beloved of the NZ nation. Before europeans arrived the Maori were ruled by many chiefs, their monarchy only came about after contact with the British. New Zealand - originally Aotearoa, the land of the long white cloud - was not colonised by the British in the way Australia was.
The natives, descendants of the Polynesians, often reacted violently to foreign visitors, begining with Abel Tasman in 1642. Captain Cook took possession of the islands for Britain in 1769 - without consulting the natives. The presence of the fierce Maori menat the British preferred and went off to colonise Australia instead.
But foreigners were drawn to New Zealand. British, French and American ships began making regular visits. Mostly whalers, seal hunters and traders. The Maori became part of their trading network and acquired tastes for european and american goods and a knowledge of Pakeha - non-Maori culture.
By 1830's foreign settlers were buying large amounts of land and the numbers of Pakeha had increased to such a point that the British goverment decided to annex New Zealand. Naval officer Hobson negotiated and they agreed to cede sovereignty to the British in exchange for a guarantee of ownership of their lands. Formalized by the Treaty of Waitangi of 1840. Initially NZ was part of the colony of New South Wales but in 1841 because autonomous (with Hobson as Governor).
By 1845 open warfare ensued from chiefs. By 1847 and the First Maori War they realised better to have a consolidated approach. They sought to emulate the unity and disciple of the british and so started the Maori King Movement.
For the first time in 1966 a princess was chosen to ascend the throne and Queen Te Ata became a symbol not only of her people but for NZ women. Long may she rest.

The Sewing Time Machine: A blouse named 'Secretary001'
The Sewing Time MachineWednesday, January 27, 2010A blouse named 'Secretary001'Here is my next project, or the inspiration for my next project. I'm no expert on the matter but this reminds me of a 40's pencil pushing office blouse, which is why I named it Secretary001.It looks to me like all the control has been shifted into side darts which were then gathered into the side seams. The sleeve looks like a very short kimono or dolman. Anyways, I got to work on the PatternMaster and this is my first muslin.
I'm not happy because I look like a bag lady!
So I learned that when zero waist darts are selected, the slack is not picked up anywhere else - not in the side seam and not in other darts. I'll have to manually shift all the control into the side dart. And that will be my second muslin....Posted by Marie-Anne at 6:28 PMLabels: blouse, fitting, PatternMaster Boutique0 comments:Post a CommentNewer Post Older Post HomeSubscribe to: Post Comments (Atom)PagesHomeAbout MeMarie-AnneWhen I'm not cleaning, cooking, or working, I'm going back in time....with my sewing machine!View my complete profileThis WeekChris' jacket is lined and it looks great.
