We Heart Art!


Helene (who is one of the nicest people you will ever meet!) over at I'm Living Proof that God Has a Sense of Humor has been kind enough to ask me to submit something to the event called "We Heart Art" that she's putting on with Domestically Challenged and Three Bay B Chicks "to promote art and being creative both with your kids and as individuals".

Find out more about it here. Today is the last day to enter, and their definition of art is broad (they are being kind), so go for it!

Okay, here's my entry. I designed and constructed it myself. It's not quite ready, but it's a family tree meant to represent my husband and myself, my two stepsons Brian and Dennie, and our two children together Joe and Lily. It's actually the header for this blog, in case you haven't noticed. It will soon be adorning the cover to our family photo album. I just love to sew by hand. :)


Okay, I did it! *whew*

  1. Lovely. A heartwarming tree. I am trying to find your post entitled "This Too Shall Pass," but not having any luck . . . . Facebook seems to indicate it's on your blog wall, but I can't get there. :(

    Eva, you are a complete doll. That was actually a response to Jessica Gottlieb's FB post about her new blog post. For some reason when I comment on her blog posts on FB it comes out that way. Go figure! (Hope I didn't confuse you!)

    If it helps, I did write a post this morning in that same vein, but I'd already posted twice so I decided to hold it off until tomorrow. WOW you have something to look forward to now! lol (((ER)))

  5. I always have liked that tree but now knowing the story behind it, I can see just how special it is and how extra-special you reveal yourself to be on an almost daily basis.
