1st day of Summer


I have learned to be content
With whatever I have.
Philippians 4:11

 A bright and happy good morning to you all and welcome to the first day of Summer....in my part of the world anyway!! The countdown is officially on for summer break and the pace has certainly picked up and in high gear. During the week I had the pleasure of spending time with a group of primary school girls who are sewing calico dolls and it is such fun to listen to all their chatter, giggling and their delight at what they are achieving. It struck me that as adults we sometimes forget how wonderful the simple things in life can be, but children bring those thoughts back to you. Just spend time with them and you will see.

My craft week? Come and see what I’ve been up to..... A cute little stitched heart to hang on the tree, or door or wherever.....



Love stitching!
A project in the making, a crocheted bag for my young niece. It is about 8 inches wide and 6 inches high. I am making some small flowers to stitch on the side and will make some dolls to pop inside.

 
Miss Shae

A couple more cute beaded dolls (I’m a bit addicted to making them).


Twins
Some beautiful flowers have popped out of nowhere it seems. They are too sweet.
 
Pretty pink

Found: 1 very interesting Christmas craft book. There are some fantastic ideas in this book.

 
Some fab idea’s in here!

I have also been doing a bit of knitting, but have not finished what I am making right now. The week ahead will be very busy for me as I will be sewing up the backdrop for the school concert night...that will keep me busy indeed! Lol. Hope you’ve had a productive week and I will catch up with you all soon. Stay happy.
Cheers, Anita.
