Hooray!

Hooray! My art teacher finally picked my works of art for the upcoming local art contest...I'm so excited! Here are the art works she picked: the abstract drawing of my brother which she combined with the bracelet abstract drawing at the bottom

the little chinese-school-boy

and my bracelet abstract drawing.

P.S.

(Soon, I will be finishing my piece of pottery in my art class and I can't wait to show it to you!)

Guitar!

I recently started taking guitar lessons! I love it! I am playing my brother's other guitar...which I am calling mine for the time being. I decided to paint it. NOT literally. Mom said, no. I painted a picture of it. See what you think:






And here I am, (fake) playing my painting of my guitar.

Baby Cousin's Bunny is....

Finished! Hooray! (except for the eyes and nose--I'm scared to sew the buttons on because the baby may chew them off or swallow--I might sew the face up with just thread.)

I have become attached to this sweet little bunny--I want to keep it! Oh, well...I guess I will just have to make myself a duplicate.

Front (needs face)

side

Back (needs a fluffy tail)

Knit, Skip, Hop, and a Jump!

I went through my huge, messy knitting basket the other day...to find...lots of unfinished projects..

"Bad Queeny," I said to myself. For I started new projects..then found more new exciting projects--sooo without thinking--I dropped the old and went onto the new!
Remember the special scarf? the one you all chose colors for..?

And one of my very first crafts--the flower rug?
Don't worry. I will finish my toadstool fairy-ring.

I've decided to start off by finishing at least 3 of my unfinished projects. 3...2................2 1/2.........1... Here I GO!!
