HGTV - Take 2

Today I got an email from HGTV's That's Clever. For those of you that haven't read about my experience with the show take a look here. My segment will now finally (fingers crossed!) air on July 5th. Exciting and a bummer at the same time because I won't be here to see it. We're going to be away on our vacation at that time!

You can never have too many

I've been itching to get my hands working on something 'crafty' so I dug up some old yarn and started knitting. I have no idea what I had originally planned to do with this bright orange yarn but here's what I did with it this weekend - a little purse for little C. She already has a purple and a red one that I made for her a while back. I love it when she decides which purse she'll use on a particular day. One day she'll love one and hate the other and the next day it may be the opposite. At 3 she's quite a girly girl!

I'm still alive!

I've been busy because of work, A Little Hut, and other odds and ends. I wasn't feeling the word "speed" for last weeks IF so I didn't even start it. I don't even know if I'll do IF this week either. I came to the realization that it was something else that was distracting me from other things that I'd like to finish. A Little Hut is 95% completed now. My part is done and I'm just waiting for my hubby to get a chance to finish some programming. That has consumed most of my free time. I just WANT to get it done.

I've decided that this blog will only house my work (design/illustration/experiments) and A Little Hut updates. So... believe it or not I've started another blog (I sound like an addict!). My new blog is called am intrigued. It will be a collection of finds that I personally like and that inspire me. It will probably have a little bit of everything - furniture, architecture, home accessories, etc etc etc. I don't know how the blog will evolve but I think it will be fun.

My other blog, Crafty Synergy, has been slowly chugging along. I don't know if it has brought anyone any benefit but I've enjoyed reading the interviews. I hope everyone is enjoying them as well.

Illustration Friday - Spring

For whatever reason I didn't feel like working on something season related so I thought of this sketch that I had already started for fun. I'm always springing into action on some project or another - with a coffee in hand of course! This is a block print with color added digitally.
