This past summer the girl chicks and I took an embroidery class taught by a friend of mine. As I was the only adult actually taking the class I spent most of my class time helping the other students--tender young maidens ranging in age from 7 to 13--with such things as threading their nededles, untangling knots and other assorted things. As such I unfortunately never finished the project we started. However my interest was renewed upon receipt of the bookWee Felt Folk.
My first and only project so far resulted in this:. This little purse measures 4 3/4 inches wide and 3 3/4 inches high. It took a total of about 2 or 3 hours to complete, however, I spread out the work over several evenings. I think I am going to give it to my mom just because. Perhaps she can keep her hearing aid batteries in it or rather I might include a small mirror. I hope she likes it.
Just the simple thoughts on life, children, books, nature, and God (to name a few) of an imperfect Christian momma as she ventures forth in search of the Sweet Life...
