Here are 2 of my favorite graphics


Ladies you can right click too
I think it should be in B&W So it will look good off a copier, embroidered, or screen printed

Hmmmm....I think we're narrowing it down to the Bee Clan and the Wolf Clan.
I gotta love Georgann's take on it. ;)

Hey E- and Everyone,

E-, Since I know we both love this machine...thought I would share this graphic...don't know how good the print quality will be but I know it will be good for altered art, journaling, etc. printing purposes. Anyone that would like to snag it....just right click and save as..

It would also look great with the threading diagram numbers removed. I can do that next week if anyone wants it that way..Let me know.




Stephanie

What about Clan of the treadle, iBees or Pirates of the High noon Tea

I think we should keep it close to sewing, I can join a womyn's drum circle and dance naked under the full moon anywhere. The fact that we drink tea, sew and like treadle machines makes us unique.

I think the reason I am not big on the whole wolf thing is that wolves are pack animals with a male leader.... Bee's well there is a Queen.. and she has male drones.

last year when my husband was in Italy, he paid particular attention to bees in Rome as they are in a lot of the architecture there..they are a sign of wealth power and prosperity to early Romans and the Pope..I think everyone admires the work ethics of bees. I am not very religious..ok welll.. not at all religious, but I love the history that comes along with ancient religions! Anyway..I am going to continue to think about this..I do not think we ahould make any decisions for atleast a week..that way we can iron out all our wrinkles..or this old lady quilter i know once told me ..." the wrinkles are just part of the art and people who try to do away with wrinkles are trying to deny the process that is what makes everything and everyone unique!" So, just smooth out the bumps I guess!

WooHoo thanks steph...

I have Photoshop on my old laptop.... but the screen sucks and it is the worst computer to edit photos on.

My new laptop probably is not much better.

More Suggestions for Chapter Names...

** simply bee

** heart of the bee

Another suggestion for patch, web banners for member websites, blogs, sigtag, etc....Layer the sewing machine graphic and bee graphic of choice so that one is dominate and the other transparent...kind of like a "machine on the bee" silhouette.

Hey Carol Sue,
I'm stitching late into the night and am set up by the computer so I can alternate to rest the eyes..I think that's the favorite of all the bee fabrics I've seen and I have been hooked on paisley fabrics for a long time!!! Gotta have some of that one!

Oh gotta keep reading, I love the bee, the teapot and the threadle,
Bev, I wouldn't want to put you on the spot sweetie, but I would love to be a Bee Haven Maven. Because you thought to do this thread, and look where it has gotten too, it has built up each other and the women here. It has been encouraging and funny and truthful. Isn't that what true sisterhood is?
I am only on top of 216

Enjoying life.
