Creativity by the numbers

As I was painting in the "Winter Studio" (that sounds so much better than telling you I'm talking about the dining room doesn't it?) I was asked just how much of my work surrounded me so here are a few numbers that I found interesting:
11 foot square (the size of the room)
3 painted birdhouses (built by my husband and I over the summer.)
I large painted chest (built by a good friend)
2 painted boxes (one of those built by my friend as well)
5 pen and ink drawings
11 acrylic paintings
5 watercolor paintings
5 quilts (4 finished and one in progress)
1 patchwork vest
2 pillows (one with patchwork and quilting, one made of a great tapestry fabric I found)
3 tote bags that I designed and made and of course all three of those are full of crochet projects that I'm working on.
1 embroidered dishtowel
2 patchwork and quilted table runners (one finished and one in progress)


I'd even drawn the lilacs I'd embroidered on the shirt I was wearing.
It made me laugh to wonder how much creativity I've got by the inch around here because this list is just the stuff in one room and I just remembered that there's some pottery in there that I made as well.
