I'm going up to sew

I spent all afternoon running errands while Chesty was being groomed -- he looks so skinny! Now, I'm going to go up and make at least 2 blocks on the Stars and Pinwheels quilt and fill in those two holes on the design wall.


But first, I'll share the results of my digital editing lesson for the day -- desaturating an image, adding a sepia tint, and framing to create a softer, more vintage look to a photo.

Oh, Chesty, you really lost weight :-). That is such a good picture of both of you, love the sepia-treatment.

Gosh I can see Chesty's skin through the hair, more comfortable for summer no doubt. Lovely photo of you two.

Chesty looks a bit uncomfortabe with his new look - and you look good on your photo :-) Ps. I think you look good on all your photos, vintage or not :-)

I thought he looked a little slimmer! Cute though. And that picture of you and Keith...before I read the blip about it above, I thought it looked a little retro. So cool.

Chesty looks "Cool" for summer! I feel sorry for our Lilly, as a Pekingese she doesn't get shaved and she looks so hot sometimes with all that hair. I gave her a bath last week and she looked as skinny as Chesty!! Big round face and skinny little body-LOL. Great photo of you and Keith!
