Before I was a knitter, I dabbled in other creative arenas. One of my favorite things to do was paint -mostly decorative style painting, but I also did a little bit of sewing and quilting, as well as other, um, attempts at art… I have decided to try to hunt some of these things down, take pictures, and display them here. Some of my creative ventures date back to high school, so please, be kind when you look at some of these hilarious things.
*links with pictures coming soon
