Photography Now & Then #76
Karen’s workspace has certainly changed. In this picture, she is sitting at a computer table reading something on her laptop. I assembled the table using a 30” by 40” pine table top and a set of four 28” table legs, which is just the right height for a computer table.
Her new sewing/cutting table is in the foreground on the left. I found an adjustable height steel desk frame which I paired with a 30” by 60” pine table top. With the adjustable height feature, the table is multifunctional for whatever she is using it for.

The back wall of the room is Karen’s design wall. It was made wrapping Styrofoam residential sheathing with flannel fabric. While she has two projects on the wall right now, sometimes she has more or when working on a larger quilt, only one.
On the right side of the picture is Karen’s treasured hand crafted oak quilting frame. It’s not a one of a kind as the craftsman who built it over 20 years ago had a shop in northern Arkansas not too far south of Branson, Missouri, where he sold a number of these frames. The frame was his own design and is no longer available as he passed away some years back. (Karen’s explanation on loading)

Idaho’s Bull Trout campground is next to picturesque Martin Lake and the larger Bull Trout Lake. It is somewhat remote, 2 miles on a dirt road off of the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Route (Idaho 21) and 26 miles from the bustling Stanley, Idaho, population 63.
Then: Martin Lake, next to Bull Trout Campground, Idaho, July 27, 2010 (Pentax K10 )
Other than an few inadvertent extra miles on Idaho 21 when trying to find the road, Bull Trout Campground was the westernmost point of our 2010 trip.
