Art Projects

Sometimes it is fun to share the projects I am busy with.

Lately I’ve knit several sweaters, baby things, and a scarf, painted plaques to give out in Japan, and unearthed all the sewing stuff.

I’ve got several sewing projects to complete: a peasant top, a dress, a few bathrobes, and whatever else I can drum up. Cherie and I are working on multiple things.

I like to make flannel blankies for babies: a square yard of 100% cotton flannel with cotton yarn crocheted around the edge with a sharp hook. They are durable and useful.

I love knitting baby socks, too.

They are so quick!

Lately I’ve used panels that Ed has knit on his knitting machine, edging them for baby sensory mats. They are colorful and soft, and really fun to create.

I’m still working on my Kensington Runestone book for children. The illustrations are about 1/3rd complete.

It’s more involved than I thought it would be.

I’ll publish it over on my Google blog eventually.

When I “Fortress” I make stuff. I’m busy.

As the temps get cool and the fireplaces are lit it is time to welcome the crafts again. My hands itch to make another sweater…

I hope to finish a few more of my little plaques today.
