Inspire, Inspire in Twenty Twelve

  As I do every year I’ll be working on multiple creative journals at the same time.  In 2010 one of my journals was filled with only repeat pattern art drawings.  I’ve decided once again to dedicate one of my journals to just line-weaving creations...

Pumpkins for Non-Trick-or-Treaters
