    Mint chocolate and pink…

    Love this color combo. Makes me think of yummy treats.

    See…I have been working a on few things. Just slower to finish any of them during the summer. Too many other fun things to do like go to the beach with the kids.

    Did you know…?

    That today is George Washington’s Birthday? 
    Little J did…found on the fridge this morning.

    I also thought I’d share another
     American Girl sleeping bag.  
    I can’t stop sewing.

    Creative ADD

    I’ve been all over the place lately when it comes to creativity.
    I think I may have Art ADD (attention deficit disorder).
    Ok…some might argue that I have ADD in other areas of my life as well but the Art ADD is self-diagnosed.
    I blame the other on Motherhood. Children steal you’re ability to keep a clear running thought in your head. 🙂 But I wouldn’t change a thing.
    Anyway…these are the things I’ve done in the past week.
    I papered our recycling cabinet to match the fridge.
    Knitted another dishcloth on the loom

    Knitted a cowl on the loom…

    Miniature terrain on a recycled CD…
    Another terrain piece…
    And last night I started another twirly crochet scarf because my elbow was hurting from the repetitive motion of the knitting.
    Crochet seems to work my wrist more and doesn’t bother me.

    In addition I’ve been washing and ironing my way through a large box of old linens. Deciding what is decent enough to save and use and what I can use in my artwork. Vintage linens and fabric are part of my idea for the Postcard Challenge book.

    So, yeah…definitely Art ADD.
