Today I want to show you the progress I made on Magnificent windows. The ideas behind this piece are falling together in such a lovely way that I had to show you.
Since I wrote the post Out of total excitment I have been absorbed about windows. Poems about windows, music about windows, pictures of windows and drawing windows.
Here you can see one of the windows which has such a large windowsill you can sit in it. How I would love to have such a window.
This is a project with music so here is one of my favorite songs. The song is from Alvin Lee with Ten Years After and it is called Outside my window. Now I know some of you prefer female artists, so for you I picked Melissa Etheridge singing live Come to my window.
Have a great start of your week with lots of sunshine.

one of my favourite memories from taking the kids to greece four years is of an old house/hotel that had large very deep windows. They had fitted a small bed in the recess and covered it in beautiful white linen sheets. THere our Margot slept and I was jealous!
My favorite is "Steamy Windows" by Tina Turner.;))
I so get your fascination with windows. I can also get into being completely enveloped by something and can not let it go, it preoccupies my mind and soul.;)
Have a lovely Monday dear Elizabeth,

Thank you for letting us look through your window!
WIndows are awesome - so are doors! I immediately thought of this post when I read yours! http://www.rubysupcycledesigns.com/2010/05/doorspoint-section-newport-rhode-island.html
I really do love your window project - and the first part of your embroidery looks wonderful!
oh, it's wonderful! (i'm going from the top down to catch up): :-) it will be so interesting to see where these windows take you...
The progress on the embroidery...awesome and so is the drawing of the window. It would be lovely to have a deep sill to sit in, wouldn't it?! Looks like there is half of a peace symbol in that window?
Thank for sharing the songs too...love them both! ;-)
