I'm the kind of person who starts many things and finishes none of them.
As a result, I have a lot of unfinished crafts just sitting around. I mean a lot.
I have : two unfinished quilt tops, two finished quilt tops with no backing,
two quilts with backing and no binding (this is starting to sound like a quilt ark),
three cross stitch pieces (I had four, but I finished one two years ago, and framed
it last year), two felt piece works, a shirt and an apron cut out but not
sewn, a rag rug only half way done (I have an excuse for that one - I ran out
of scrap material), feed sacks waiting to be up-cycled into shopping
bags, and I'm sure I missed some things.
I am the jack of all crafts, master of none.

| This is a picture of Starbuck Sadie. She was foaled in the mid 80's, so I don't think she was named after the coffee shop. |
Deciding I do not have enough on my plate,
I added on painting. And not just one kind.
I started watercolors, acrylics and oils simultaneously.
It seemed like a good idea at the time. After all, I can draw.
Unfortunately, I am the same with painting as I am with
crafting. I have canvas boards and watercolor paper with
sketches on them all over the house. Despite my shortcomings,
I have finished a few.
I have finished a few.

| This is one of my first watercolors. The colors are kind of funny looking, blame it on my scanner. The real picture is not so blah. |
criticism for me, feel free to leave a comment.
