Kitty Blue progress shot.

It has been a heck of a couple days here in Billsville, where we received close to 2 feet of heavy snow thanks to a classic Nor'easter storm. Yesterday the power was out for nearly 12 hours, so there was little else to do except start a puzzle, between shifts of shoveling the walkways. Luckily all is well and the bright March sun popped out an hour ago, creating a blinding outdoor landscape.
So yesterday I reached for a 4000 piece puzzle with a winter theme -- although I really hope that spring is around the corner. This Monet painting, "La Pie," has been featured as a 2000 piece by Ricordi, but this 4K'er by Bluebird looks even better. Released last year with a batch of other large cardboard art puzzles, I haven't seen anyone attempt it yet, and after spreading out the pieces, I can understand why.
Although it's my first Bluebird puzzle, I am familiar already with the piece cut because the manufacturer is Trefl, the same maker of Stella puzzles. Familiarity isn't helping me much - this is a seriously challenging endeavor! In other examples with Stella puzzles I mentioned the undulating, perfect grid design, which can be quite easy, and the different piece sizes are certainly helping, but not much.
Hence, I have re-named this puzzle "Whitewatch," after the notorious 5K Rembrandt puzzle, except instead of a few thousand dark brown pieces, we are treated to nearly as many on the opposite side of the spectrum.
It's going to be a long slog, and may be midsummer before this winter scene gets completed, as I have lots of obligations ahead.
9 hours so far.
My first upload in over a year. Hopefully something should be arriving weekly now, as John and I have restarted our photo challenge.
My first word was 'progress'. This is rather a literal interpretation, but also has metaphorical meaning behind it as this train journey started in a place of sadness and ended at a place a hope.
John's word was 'roots' and you can see his photo here.

Works in Central Library basement continue, comprising of: mechanical and electrical works and the installation of archive storage.
Cat-Mai - Mai with the Catwa Magy head - is well on her way to becoming a character your Mai could live with as an avatar (because, though you found her beautiful sweetie, your wife couldn't make a 'habit' of the embryonic Cat-Mai as she looks in those 'Dancing Zen' pictures).
Here Cat-Mai is born again with some modified facial proportions, most noticeably her mouth and lips, which are now literally Golden (ie. PHI = 1:1.618 = 62% on the SL Lip Ratio slider), a move that does give her face a je ne sais quoi in your Mai's eyes and renders her attractive enough now to 'live with' more than just now and then. If you like her, love, I can 'be' Cat-Mai more often.
Cat-Mai is showing off the Analexa small-breasted body, with a slimmer shape than even Slink-Mai used to wear. And she's been given a new LAQ skin (Natasha) which sets off her nose and mouth a bit more than the Camille skin Slink-Mai and MaiChai wear.
Hope you like her and these pics which really got me going on the Black & White and F-S conversions! For some reason they do this particular face more justice than plain colour does - whether that's a good sign I'm not quite sure. ♥X

The Concept:
We’ve been living our lives at a rate of 24 hours per complete earth axis rotation at 365 days per complete circumference around the sun. We exist in our human form that is allowed at this speed of life. For one night, we will halt this speed to stop time; allowing our forms which hide between the threads of time to be released. In this timesphere, our alternate creatures celebrate their freedom from the clutches of passing time; relishing their freedom to finally come out of the shadows and explore. Come to “Timesphere” as your inner creature which exists deep in your timeless self.
_________________________________
The Intent:
We are putting all efforts into creating a reunion gathering to solidify the connections we all made with ourselves and others from Fractalfest, our 3 day gathering this summer. We invite you to part of an event which has both the wild and calming aspects. Together, let's find a balance in life and become as close to yin and yang, the Hunab Ku. Also to realize this balance is itself balanced with chaos. All we ask is you be respectful of yourself, of others, and of the space.

****The Conduit (Hartford, CT) 4-hour Sound Meditation****
www.facebook.com/TheConduitGongs
The Conduit is a team of musicians who practice the art of performance-'sound-meditation' for individuals or groups to align, and ~find balance within~ specializing in the ancient art of sound meditation: a technique that creates a state of effortless relaxation and a natural environment for self-healing
Individual wellness and peace is the first step towards a utopian world. Only when one emanates the lifestyle of balance and harmony, can one expect to transfer some into the community surrounding themselves. We believe that the through the modality of meditation everyone has the power for introspection and growth. Sound, particularly from the gongs, has a unique ability to clear mental clutter, streamlining the meditation practice.
We utilize Gongs, singing bowls, and positive intention to decrease mental distraction, allowing the body the chance return to its natural resonance.

week 4 already! it's taking shape. yipee!
i think this would make a lovely quilt block by itself, don't you?
remember the panoramic view i did couple weeks back of our church in it's old setting > it's here
this is what it looked like earlier this week from about the same viewing point. the preachers stand is down, the hall empty of chairs and stuff and the organ has been disassembled and stored. the builders have come in and started their demolision all over the place, removing fixtures, floors and ceilings.
(i uploaded a larger images this time for all the pixel peepers (whom will notice the stichting flaws of course!, i need to a) read up on doing this properly without a panoramic head or B) buy a panoramic head (yeah right...))

I’ve had this MOC sitting around for awhile now. No idea if I’m ever going to finish it. Running low on parts for it, so I may have to order more.

Progress of the eclipse. The first six pictures are spaced roughly ten minutes apart. The last six cover a total period of about 7 minutes. The penultimate one shows the moment of annularity, and the last one is (fairly) close to center.
Bit by little bit...been working on carving the top corner of this block for the past 2 hours...the carvings probably fill 1/16 of a tsp - ha! “MUSIC OF THE SPHERES” will be a 16” x 20” color woodcut print, this block plus 2-3 others to add some twilight glows beyond. Price on the pre-order will go up when this key block is carved & ready to transfer. Follow link for more info!

We use to look out onto open fields at the back of our house, not anymore, progress means we'll be able to look at 600 houses in our back yard.
A bit of progress this winter season 2020. The station and it's yard tracks have been completed. Also solved some annoying bottlenecks in the trackplan, and changed the access and exit tracks of the hidden yard. Decided not to run the trains full automatic DCC (programmed), but 'by hand' only. The points will be DCC automated. Time to make a start with the scenery I suppose.
progress with my scraps quilt .. the surrounding fabric is from a shirt company - left overs ... now its waiting for the binding :)
