Quick Catch Up

I've been facilitating other people's craftiness over the last few days:

Fun With Fabric at Chertsey Museum saw the ladies making chick bowls

 

 

Then on Saturday we had mayhem in church with kids making all sorts of things:

Sewing projects

Colouring and beading projects

Pompom creatures, pipe-cleaner people with lightsabers, cobwebs on the front of a spider man den, and a Möbius strip

And what have I been doing?

A bit of this - shopping for some classes, with a bit of "oooh, I *want* that" jumping into the basket too

 

And the embroidery machine has been earning its keep, with 35 assorted tops for the local pre-school done and now ready to be delivered

Plus a sample being worked on for a book scheme at the borough

And a bit of applique fun, just because!

 And I still have another week off school - yippee!!!!

Late Night Sewing

I had two fun evening sewing sessions last week: my friend Linda came round and we spent an evening putting the world to rights, and cutting into this pile of pashminas
 

and this pile of woven (some slightly scratch) scarves

and a short time later had this collection of mostly infinity scarves

 

 Not on any list, but some Christmas presents sorted all the same (is it OK to add to a to-do list and then straight away cross off as completed?)

I've now found a whole load more scarves - when are you coming back Linda?

The second evening was at Chertsey Museum: Chertsey Chicks!  Using the lovely Plum's 'recipe' again the ladies made chicks and a strawberry (there is always one who cant do as she's told!)

Pretty cute aren't they
