Sweet Farmhouse Country Whites
I can knit, but I am not great at it and the tension is all over the chart. So, it was a sweet deal to bring this vintage sweater home for five dollars. It's made of wool, mohair and acrylic. It is so soft and lightweight and great for a cool summer evening like tonight. Isn't this white kitten precious? More softness and beauty. White flowers make even dirty barns look beautiful...or at least I think so.

Paris Dress

Look at these beautiful paper dresses
I'm in love with them
Lately I've been working with paper
No fumes paints
No pins and needles to step on
No expensive supplies
and yet it's rewarding in the
creative sense.
I didn't make these darlings,
but I wish for some Paris robes.

Westie Dog Knits

Sir Salty earlier this summer taking a snooze and just bathed. His coat is on the 'longish side which makes him look like a beach boy. I have a little surprise for him coming up.

I got this cute as can be pattern from Kristin Nicholas who designs the brightest things for all of us to enjoy! If you've not been over to her blog now is the time to skip over and have a visit on her sheep farm. Maybe you want to knit this too? You might even beat me at finishing it. My mom says my knitting is like skewering sheisk-ka-bobs, too tight, but I will keep practicing. Practice makes perfect is my Mom's saying.

Recycle Wearable Art Clothes

Recycle those denim jeans into wearable art sculpture. All credit goes to Gary Harvey for this creation. He used 41, yes 41 pairs of jeans to create this gown. I love how he used darker shades for each tier of the ruffled gown. This is the first "denim gown" I have ever seen. You would never be at a loss for pocket room.

Westie Dog Halloween Costume Art

My westie is a westie wizard on halloween and any other day. In costume and out of costume. He can sniff out chocolate and candy. He can sniff out cakes and baked goods. Our westie gets especially excited when there is fresh baking bread.
Do you dress your pets up?
This original painting is an aceo, 2.5 by 3.5-inches on linen canvas cardstock for sale here.
