Day 17 - An Art Piece

Also known as A Picture You Took Redux.

I hope folk art counts...I used to draw a lot when I was in high school, but then I got frustrated with drawings not turning out the way I wanted them to, so I moved on to other things. I love crafts. Crochet, painting (as in I buy wooden things or ceramic things and paint them), sewing, tatting, etc. I've dabbled in everything at least a little, but I think I'm best at crochet.

So here's a picture of a blanket I made for my nephew before I knew he was a nephew:P

I've made lots of scarfs and hats, but I think this was the first baby blanket I did or finished. I followed this with the Christmas-colored blanket in one of the first posts on my blog:) That was the first full-sized blanket I completed.

What can I say? We spend a lot of time in the car in the winter...Crochet is a warm craft:)

And here is my other artsy hobby:) I took this one Easter of the work area beside my Aunt's shed. Her whole house looks like it came straight out of a magazine.
