Oh my! I’ve been so busy, I forgot to post “Weekending”…. A busy, quick weekend, with one sick husband, a joyful, moody two-year old (cause that’s how 2 year olds roll) and some time to finish up some crafts thanks to Gramma and Grandpa.
This little one needed her “polar bear cub that you made me mama cause I wanted him when you made one for baby Ryo.” and her very own farmers market bag.
While we were at my parents, I was able to finish up some arctic and Antarctica playmats and peg dolls for a Waldorf swap I’m in. I love how they came out. I made 5 Antarctica shaped (loosely), play mats made from cotton batik and wool felt. They have an explorer peg doll to go with them. And I made 5 ice cap Arctic mats, with an Inuit peg person to go with it. It was the first time I had done any free motion quilting and even though I don’t think I am very good at it yet, I am kind of loving it. It’s bringing a new feel to my playmats that I am definitely digging. These guys get shipped out this week and then hopefully by the end of the month, I will have a whole box of handmade Arctic/Antarctic goodies to share with you (and with Ellie). 😉
Oh my goodness, so cute! We need a close up of that Polar Bear! 🙂
You know, Ellie talks of “Summer who took our pictures at the beach with baby Ryo”, all the time! 😉
Love, love the play mats.
Oh thank you Janet!!
That has to be one of the most adorable things I’ve ever seen! ❤
Well done those are beautiful!
Oh that sunshine! The cauliflowers! It looks like Spring where you are! I’m desperately craving springtime these days. I know I need to slow down and enjoy winter but truth is it’s hard not to get ‘cooped up’, it’s too cold or icy to go out everyday and I’ve been too distracted to focus on crafting.
Keep up the amazing work Summer! You’re a gifted crafty lady 🙂
