I wonder how many people own four Scrabble games. You can see where our recreational priorities lay. The oldest came from Grammy, who taught me how to sew. I can't think of anything that impressed me more than learning how to stitch something with right sides together, then turn it inside out and *poof*.... magic! She taught me to embroider - the green corduroy scrabble bag was the first thing I ever sewed. Grammy's letter bag has words on it (lined, no less) and I always thought that was a brilliant choice of fabric. I loved that April also had two Scrabble games - one for home and one for the cottage. In one of her boxes was a list of 2-letter words that her Aunty Lil had made. Emma humoured us by playing now and then, but she never was a word nerd - much to our disappointment.

This was a terrific fake journal. You have an eye for designing pages.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Michelle... I'm still going. Just am slowed down with other priorities. I'll finish it yet!
DeleteSuch a bittersweet journal...almost motivates me to do some sorting and purging!! great idea for a journal...draw stuff 'before you dispose of it' as your fake character...love your drawings...interesting observation about the 'tightness' of your drawings. ♥
