GYPSY DRESS MAGIC latest embroidery

Now that I have started this dress, I have been getting quite
excited.......Here are photos of my latest efforts......

 

This image is inpired by an old symbol of a Celtic Mermaid......
I have always loved this image, so I am quite excited to
finally use it in some way, mind you I did give here an
extra tail........Just have to finish the hair.......

This is a Celtic Heart Crown which I have almost finished......
Unfortunately with my mobile camera you lose a lot of the
beautiful colours.........

Another heart motif I am working on, now that I have
openly embraced my love of the heart symbol..........

Here's to lots more embroidery adventures and
seeing what this dress wants to become.........

GYPSY DRESS MAGIC Beginnings

Have finally started on creating my MAGIC GYPSY DRESS......
I have had this dress for quite awhile and have been pondering
doing something which is inspired by my love of GYPSY and
MAGIC........

I've realised the only way to get it perfect, is to just start and play
and see what comes.........

I started off with this heart detail.......I have finally embraced my
secret love of the heart shape.......

Added this patch which I have had for along time.......

Have started a heart band around one of the arms.......

As you can see this is a long term project, but it is great
to have start it..........

ANTOHER GREAT MORNING

Have started the morning off with a great jog, starting at 5.45am.........
Am really starting to get into these, gets me into a great headspace
for the rest of the day........
Normally I  walk a block, then jog a block for an hour but today I
got it up to 1 1/4hrs, go me, yeah.......Try to incorporate some hills
as best as I can.......
As per usual I am very luck to live in such a beautiful place, so took
some photos of the beautiful bush as the sun was coming through.....

THE TREE

Just finished watching last night an amazingly, beautiful,
uplifting wonderful movie called

The Tree

A very uplifting movie about death and family.......
I highly recomment you track it down and if you
live in the Blue Mountains you can order it in
at your local library which is where I found it......

MOON DREAMING

Last night I had a great time at choir,
and one of the members recommended singing the Paul Kelly
song 'One Night the Moon' which another member is
going to translate into serbian........
I just love Paul Kelly.........


ONE NIGHT THE MOON

One night the moon came sailing by
On a big ship right across the night sky
One night the moon came sailing by
Called all the dreamers to come for a ride
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/p/paul_kelly/one_night_the_moon.html ]
One night the moon came wheeling by
On a big bike right across the night sky
One night the moon came wheeling by
Called all the sleepers to come for a ride

One night the moon came galloping by
On a big horse right across the night sky
One night the moon came galloping by
Called all the dreamers to come for a ride

One night the moon came choo-chooing by
On a big train right across the sky
One night the moon came choo-chooing by
Called all the sleepers to come for a ride

One night the moon came rolling by
In a big cart right across the night sky
One night the moon came rolling by
Called all the dreamers to come for a ride

(Above is an image by nothought MOON)

One Night the Moon


And then this morning when I went for my early morning jog,
I came across the giant moon going down above some lovely trees
towards the west.........
It inpired me to write this piece.........



DANCING UNDER THE MOON

Dancing under the moonlight,
as the sun rises up.......

Dancing on foreign shores
in far away dreamy places,
where everything goes my way........

Dancing under the sparkle of light,
Under the MOONBEAMS and the SUNRAYS,
Transfixed by the shimmering across my body
and the tinkering within the lights......

Faraway dreaming,
               magical sights.......
The wind is whispering little nothings,
as I think about the night.......

By me, Bhodi Robinson

WHAT A PLEASANT PLACE TO JOG IN.......

Hi everyone.......

I am quite excited, as I have started going for morning jogs.......
I am now in my second week, I think it is day 10 and I am
really enjoying it......
I am also very lucky to be able to jog through and around the
Blue Mountains World Heritage National Park which is just
down the road from me...........

So below, are some photos I took the other day on my early
morning jog.........

Looking at these pictures as I upload them, I realise I am
quite lucky.......
And here I am, the final view at the end of the jog, as I sit
on the back verandah couch and have a well earned breather
and admire the trees in my own backyard......

Upto Stuff

Having a good day, yesterday I felt a bit flat.......
But today was alot better.....I suppose that is part of living,
going with the low bits to appreciate the good bits......

Have been in the office working on Blackheath Day Picnic......
Have spent the early morning working on my writings.  My book of
crazy characters which is slowly coming into a story.......Seen a few friends
on the walk into town.......Hanging at the library and art get together to
look forward to a bit later.......
Listening to an old fave, 'Alice In Chains', 'The Rooster'
