Eclipse and a NEW Project

Yesterday I said that in that contraption with al the stuff on it, Sawyer looked like the Daleks in Dr. Who.  Actually, I was thinking about the leader of the Daleks, Dr. Davros.  I just couldn't think of his name.  I came across a site that listed all the monsters in the series and spent a considerable amount of time looking for this guy.  It just kept bugging me!

But he really does look like a happier Davros, doesn't he.

I know I listed a lot of things I need to work on, but I decided to add yet another project to my workload.  yes, Like the glutton for punishment, what are we unless we are pushing ourselves to the outmost limit......right?

You know I have been doing Physical Therapy, which by the way has relived 95% of all the pain,   And there is Sy and Trinity who own the place.  And Cara, TJ and Tyler who are the PT Techs working with me.  And Sy and Trinity have two girls and a boy.

I figure that is 8 pillow cases.

I made one today, getting the measurements straight.  I put some chicken and peppers and onions into the crockpot and sewed until the eclipse started. 










These are photos from the TV coverage Madras OR.  

 













I  emptied a box of Chocolate Crave Cereal (hey, don't judge) and took these photos of the eclipse as it happened here in Baton Rouge.  
The cereal box was interesting.  Frank got home halfway though the event and was amazed at the eclipse as it passed through North Carolina where we had just been

This is what we saw here, well, I didn't because I didn't have glasses......but I digress.






 This is the real eclipse and on the  right is the one I made.

I think I got it pretty good, huh?

PS: this is a piece I did in 2006 taking a piece of black fabric and doing a sort of reverse discharge.  It was one of my earlier experiements with this technique.  Michael told me that the resulting red fabric was highly prized by dischargers and not always easy to get.
