I really must stop...

I wish I could say my focus has been razor sharp the last two weeks, but that has not been so. This past week has been a little more focused than the week before, but I really find it hard to be productive with the Winter Olympics as constant backdrop. And once I start playing in Paint Shop Pro...well, it's like eating potato chips, only there's no bottom to this bag. In the process of printing out a full size pattern in multiple sections, I suddenly saw a new image emerge because of the crop. Wow, rushing to Las Vegas, I thought.

And look what happens when I rotated the design I felt was off balance value-wise. The rays I thought of as emanating from the distant Las Vegas became streams of traffic headed into Las Vegas. So many options, so little time.

The only way forward is to choose one option and go with it! The others will keep till "next time"...

I'm anxious to see how you put one of these cool designs into cloth.

Easy for YOU to say, Margaret. Oh, I know which one I'm using, I just keep finding myself playing more anyway. bj, I too am anxious to see how this plays out. I'm not sure my idea for the technical approach is going to work, but I have a back-up plan if it fails. Hoping to learn something here...
