>Sunday Bonanza

>

Sundays are supposed to be a day of rest, and that is exactly what I needed this weekend. On Friday, I had to work my real job, and it was quite the long day... In fact, I was so exhausted yesterday, that I had to take a day off from blogging! I hope you weren't mad. LOL.

Last night, I had some time to start on my bead-embroidered television. I cut out a number of felt shapes. Altogether, there are 3 layers, and the knobs have 4 layers. These numbers might increase in the future, though...

And, if you aren't familiar with the image on the TV screen, it is the cast of Bonanza. Bonanza was an American Western (cowboy) show. It first aired in 1959, and beginning in 1961, you could watch it every Sunday night until 1972. I'll admit, this show was just a little before my time... But, Corky remembers it, and I'm sure he watched it every week:) Bonanza was the first television show to film all of its episodes in colour, although many people didn't own a colour TV until well into the 1970s.

Do you remember when you first got a colour TV, or did you always have one? I remember watching a small portable black & white TV when I was a kid, although I don't think it was an RCA... Which reminds me, what colour do you think my beaded television set should be??
