Whimsy 365: Day 9

 

I was sitting on the couch pondering what to sketch…waiting for a creative whim to inspire me. I happened to look at my corner cupboard and saw a piece of handmade pottery that was given to me by one of my best friends.

The piece is a long rectangular shape with a hand-painted star, sunflower, crow and sheep. My friend special ordered four of these pieces of pottery from an artist in Michigan one year for Christmas gifts. The star represents Linda, the sunflower represents Debbie, the sheep represents me and the crow represents Jann. Us four our very close friends. For the past 25 years, we’ve taken a 5-7 day road trip to Ohio for shopping and antiquing. So many wonderful memories have been made through the years.

Today’s sketch is the result of taking those four symbols that represent our friendship and creating a design that I absolutely LOVE! This is another sketch I will be making into a punchneedle pattern as well as a hook rug pattern.

Blessings,

Teresa
