I started stripping the wallpaper from the hall in the new flat and found the original wallpaper. Unfortunatley this means the original plaster so when I removed this the whole wall came off in chunks. O_o
pattern by Jenny Gordy of Wiksten-Made. found in Stitch magazine (holiday issue 2008) love it!
also, i was inspired by Jenny who was inspired by another seamstress (who was probably inspired by someone else) to make this in a printed fabric. i was so eager to get this made that i finished it up in one evening.
p.s. i also copied Jenny by wearing a v-neck knit top. but i also see it paired with some other tops i have (including another printed blouse i made...) oh so many possibilities. now i want to make another.
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 really liked the patterns, depth and dimension the reeds and grasses hold. Someone looking at the photo the other day said they thought it would make an interesting jigsaw puzzle. I think it just might.
I got bored on a slow day at work so I took the opportunity to play around in the macro world, a world in which I am still quiet new and uncomfortable with. This was an old piece of wood that had been thrown in the trash can. The colors and pattern caught my eye so I grabbed the camera and took the shot.
I used a combination of beadline and boxes for this one. Here is a link to where I used this pattern www.flickr.com/photos/93814875@N08/8971531536/ Please let me know if you have seen this pattern anywhere else.
