Twyla On Tuesday - Crocheting and Art Journaling

Hello dear friends!

We don't call ourselves Two Crazy Crafters

for nothing!  Our lives really do revolve around our

crafts.  When we shop, we visit the local craft stores

and the scrapbook store.  That is where our extra money

goes.  When we plan our day, it always involves one

of our many craft projects.  I really would not feel like

me without it.

I have so much yarn in my stash that sometimes it is

fun just to do a scrap afghan using all different colors.

It is a great way of using up all those little bits of leftover

yarn from other projects.

This is a happy little afghan.  Using my favorite

crochet stitch, the half double crochet. I just do one row

of each color using a size K hook.  I chained 135 to get

it started.  When it's the size I want I'll put a border around it.

I am so inspired by all the art journaling I see on Pinterest.

I wanted to give it a try.  Like they always say, there's no

wrong way to do it and the hardest part for me was just

to sit down and start.  I ripped and glued, painted

and doodled.  I am trying to figure out what my style is.

I haven't quite figured it out yet, but it was freeing and

enjoyable.  I am sure there will be more to show you in

the future.  This is my first feeble attempt.  It is different

from the collage canvas art that I do.  A little more personal

and definitely a challenge.

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a wonderful week!

Love, Twyla
