Something New


At long last I have something new to post. Karoda's insomnia must be contagious as I woke at 4am today and decided that instead of tossing and turning, I'd just get up and work in my studio. Must admit, I like that early morning quiet of a sleeping house. My digital camera technique is equivalent to my free motion quilting technique--both s--k. Feel free to look at someone else's blog.

Here is my Lenten "Golgotha" named for the hill with three crosses. Of course at a different time of year, I might choose another name more appropriate for the vibrant yellows. Posted by Hello

I like the center focal point at the top...I really need to get busy...I'm holding my breath until vacation week the first of April...just too tired to operate machinery when I come home from work.
