Random Creations from the Past

I am feeling especially random today so I thought I would put up photos of some of my past creations.  Yes, good blogging for me is lots of pictures and a few words.  Here we go...


My first freeform piece made while touring Europe 1977-1978.  I didn't know about freeform then, I called it doodling with yarn.  It was made with one continuous thread and is framed in an old window with a partial screen that I found in the basement of my house which is over 100 years old:

A wall quilt I made sometime around 2000:

 My four seasons of trees - a little exercise for myself in creative knitting and also the first pattern I ever wrote out.  The pattern is free here:  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/four-seasons-of-trees

A nest with eggs I made by manipulating fabric:

A friend gave me a bag of old electronic parts and said "do something with this"  So I made some necklaces:

 This was for the Itsy Bitsy Bikini Challenge in the Freeformations group on Ravelry for the Ravelympics 2008 and, no, I haven't worn it yet...

Well, that's enough for now.  I will end with my Loon.  I am currently using it as my Ravatar so you might recognize it:

I thought spring had sprung but now I am watching a snow storm outside my window.  Here are a few of my Irish Crochet samples to bring back the spirit of spring.

And now, back to hibernating....
