I BOUGHT AN ORGAN !!!

    As my doctor said I could start playing the piano again,,,,,,,,,I BOUGHT A CLASSIC ORGAN!!!

http://www.roland.com/products/en/C-200/

I had piano lesson for 8 years when I was a child.  And 2 years for modern electric organ lesson.  Comparing piano and organ, piano play would be the overload for my RA finger and joint.  I chose classic organ because I like its glorious sounds.

    My organ, Roland C-200 has been released just last month, yes grand new.  It has many sound, not only church organ sound but also orchestra sound, piano sound trumpet, cembalo and flute. It has only one layer keyboard but it could be divided into 3 parts, right hand, left hand and pedal.  I want to master this organ and play many beautiful classic music.

   I love playing organ. It doesn’t give me pain on my hands. Good for RA patient.

   Today I play 2 classical music that I used to play when I was a junior high student over 40 years ago.

My Product “Miss Weigle No.1″

    I started hooking Miss Weigle last month.  It’s a big rug(90cmx150cm, 36″X60″) and I might take 1year to finish it.   And I’d like to post it and make a report of the proceedings and results of Miss Weigle.   Posting and showing my product would be a kind of my motivation to contineu hooking.

    Hooking is fun fun fun.  But it requires me many skills and talents, such as color sense, dying skill and organization skill.   And off course much patience too. 

    I will name today’s project “Miss Weigle No.1″.  I do not like color of checkerboard.  Its too bright.    I want to change the color.

My Way of Hooking

    Two months has passed since I visited theU.S.    I will post about my trip later.    In that travel Mr. Gene Shepherd who lives in California taught me how to hook in his studio.    I have been keeping that way of hooking and I post my recent way of hooking .

    I started hooking two years ago, so can’t hook nicely.    I want you to see my hooking on YouTube.  It may look normal with my hooking.  But I was once awful before, twisted my wrist.  After I got hint in his studio, I can now hook 3 times as fast as before.
