It's here !

My lovely moon-phase calendar arrived from Kit Eastman's Silver Minnow Blog giveaway. I wish I could have gotten a better photo. I waited too long. The calendar arrived Friday and was unrolled and admired. Saturday was sunny and bright--great for photos in our kitchen where I set them up. Except I wasn't so great. A trip to the dentist for cleaning left me with a reaction to the new fluoride they applied and I went to bed. And Sunday dawned gloomy and it's been gloomy ever since. So the colors are much duller than the original. You can see Kit's much better photos here.

Right now it's rolled up back in it's tube, waiting for me to get out shopping for a frame.

Can you hear the squeals of delight?

I won! Silver Minnow recently blogged the laborious steps she goes through to create one of her Katazome pieces, and then offered one as a giveaway. And I won!

It's a lunar calendar. I always keep track of the moon phases and over the years have had lunar calendars, but none were works of art! The year of the rabbit design is amazing. I am awed, grateful and, wow! Go and look, it is awesome.

I'll be sure to post pictures here once it arrives on my doorstep. I'm already thinking about how to frame? display? back? oh, my!
