This is just a prototype, I guess you would say... trying to fill in a design in a way to make a floor or a wall. But yikes! What a headache!
Now if I dare take it apart, I could redo it with pretty colors... assuming I have the right pieces.
Doa: The sewing project - Basics! I will try to sew some hoodies and tights in msd size. This is the second try! I love the fabric in this one <3 But I'll have to redo the pattern again, because now the neck hole is to wide :(
A 'defect' in the bark breaks the pattern, and I break mine by opening my eyes to things other than birds. To tell the truth, it's a lot better getting a picture of a bark that I find interesting when waiting for a bird to make it's appearance. :)
This morning when we were out on the safari, I'd forgotten to pocket my WALs and had to make do with the tele. This was at the banks of a fairly large water-body. One of our co-passengers in the jeep got bit by a leech, and we aptly nick-named the water-body 'Leech Lake'.

Reading the wikstenmade blog has inspired me to become a better seamstress. I tried to do the pattern maker justice. (^-^)
I'd like to thank all participants of the contest and congratulate them for their great entries. As an additional thank you I will be sending all of them a copy of my swallow diagrams. I'll be giving more infos and feedback to the entries on my blog shortly!
Alviso Flat lies just a hundred yards north of the Alviso Marina County Park. Situated just west of the 1880 South Coast Pacific railroad grade, the flat is a widening of the ditch flanking the rail track. I have no idea why the ditch widens here but it makes an interesting and photographic landscape feature. The area fills with a few inches of water during our winter rainy season and tends to dry out in the summer. This has been an exceptionally dry winter so I was a bit surprised to find water in the flat during this January visit. Perhaps it is due to the adjacent salt ponds, which were relatively full, or a connection to the New Chicago Marsh on the other side of the track. This marsh is running with much higher water levels since the Salt Pond A16 construction project.
As you walk along the levee past Alviso Flat you can see the vague remnants of a few marsh channels. These are much more evident from the air as is the color du jour of the flat’s shallow water (in this case light brown).
Fellow KAPper Dave Wheeler, who was visiting from Maryland, accompanied me on this outing. You can see Dave’s white Rokakku kite in several of the images.
I am taking these documentary photographs under a Special Use Permit from the California Department of Fish & Wildlife. Kite flying is prohibited over the Eden Landing Ecological Reserve without a Special Use Permit, as is access to this part of the Don Edwards National Wildlife Refuge.
Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that i
Still need her so
Red, red wine
It`s up to you
All I can do, i`ve done
But mem`ries won`t go
No, mem`ries won`t go
I`d have thought
That with time
Thoughts of her
Would leave my head
I was wrong
And I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don`t let me be alone
It`s tearin` apart
My blue, blue heart
