I feel like I have so many ideas that are trapped inside. You might say I'm "mind-bottled". If only I could get them out and polish them up, then I'd have something really special. I spent about an hour trying all different poses for this one, but in my opinion, it payed off, and sometimes, that is what it's going to require. Soon I will be able to release all my ideas.
This is entirely inspired by the amazing Rosie Hardy (all credit goes to her), everything she does inspires me, and I have her to thank for helping me evolve and challenge myself. Miss Rosie, if you ever do see this (of course I cannot thank you enough, but this is a start) THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SO SO SO SO SO SO SO MUCH! (and although I could go on forever, I don't want to bore anyone)
Week 3/52
Lee's Surrender overshot blanket, ready to weave. This felt good!
I assume that this weaving pattern came from sometime around the Civil War, given the name. I can't wait to actually have it finished!

The Fine People At Wikipeda have this to say about the original picture(s) this was based on.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%E2%80%93J_day_in_Times_Square
V–J day in Times Square, perhaps the most famous photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt, is of an American sailor kissing a young woman on V-J Day in Times Square on August 14, 1945, that was originally published in Life magazine. (The photograph is known under various names: V-J day in Times Square, V-Day, etc.[1])
Because Eisenstaedt was photographing rapidly changing events during the V-J celebrations he didn't get a chance to get names and details. The photograph does not clearly show the faces of either kisser and several people have laid claim to being the subjects. The photo was shot just south of 45th Street looking north from a location where Broadway and Seventh Avenue converge.

However it does seem this statute is based on another photo taken at the same time by a navy photographer. (from the same Wiki entry):
U.S. Navy photo journalist Victor Jorgensen captured another view of the same scene, which was published in the New York Times.[4] This photograph shows less of Times Square in the background and does not show the full body of either the sailor or the nurse. Unlike the Eisenstaedt photograph, this photograph is in the public domain (by virtue of being produced by a federal government employee on official position).
A U.S. Army color guard and firing detail from the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) were part of the opening ceremonies April 9, 2015, for a special observance and reenactment for the 150th anniversary of Gen. Robert E. Lee’s surrender of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia to Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant April 9, 1865, at Appomattox, Va. The Old Guard served at Appomattox in 1865. The event featured hundreds of Civil War reenactors, such as those shown here, and thousands of spectators. (Photos courtesy Kim and Mary Jane Holien)

I visited the the iconic statue "Unconditional Surrender" down at the port. This sculpture was inspired by the classic photo of a nurse embraced in a kiss with a sailor in Times Square during World War II. The sculpture is on loan with the Port of San Diego.
