Quiet Sunday

vertigo
Quiet Sunday today - pottering in the studio - but not accomplishing much.

The vertigo is still with me - so I am pretty fed up about that.

The image here is a sketchbook page - probably for my “Travelling Sketchbook” which I share with Linda.

It is only a rough sketch - using painted bondaweb, and free machine embroidery. I was reflecting on the things we say like “keeping your feet on the ground” or “Being grounded” and how just now - the ground does not feel like a very safe place - in fact is seems rather squashy!! The colours probably reflect my dreary state of mind.

Thanks to
Judy,
Lynn and
Marion
For joining in the PIF exchange. I am really looking forward to making something for you all - don’t forget to e-mail me with your addresses if you have not all ready done so.

Denice will also be getting something from me - although she does not have a blog - I am sure she will join in the PIF ethos.

Thanks to all of you who left a comment on my “Friendship post” I am the one at the back left of the last photo! And I had a great time at our class reunion

    HI karen,your sketchbook page made me think of joy, someone filled with light above the earth a dancer.My pages are coloured ready for inspiration. Sorry the vertigo is still around Linda

  • Hi
    Sorry to hear that you are still suffering from your balance problem.
    Even so this little piece is beautiful.
    Sorry I didn’t volunteer to join the forward thing but with revamping the website and trying to complete present projects, and the book, I couldn’t fulfil the promise.

    Getting some help with Dreamweaver - tonight I hope but he hasn’t turned up yet and no message!!!!

  • Hi Karen
    What a beautiful piece, the movement in the figure is delightful , you can almost feel the twist in the body and the colours are lovely.
    So sorry to hear you’re feeling rough, hope it clears soon for you.
    Glad you had a good time on the reunion and it’s nice to put a face to your blog posts.

    karen , great vertigo inspired piece with spinning figure. Great to know what you look like.

    Keep blogging.

  • Hey Karen,
    Sorry to hear that you are STILL under the weather, so to speak. Maybe I need a case of vertigo so that I can create such a lovely piece. I agree with Linda, the figure appears to be a dance in the sky………just so lovely and carefree.
    Take care of yourself.
