cat in the kennel

I bought this kennel for the dogs to keep them dry in the rain -they REFUSE to set foot inside but Fatcat is very happy...

in the bag

The boys keep losing their expensive school swimming bags so I whipped these up with some quantex I have had forever. Was so pleased to even find a toggle for it. No guarantee they wont loose these too though!!

in a twist

Robs' class needed someone to sew tie-backs for their curtains, but I thought it would be more fun for the girls to make something themselves. I got them all to thread a string with beads, petals and straws and then plaited them into sets of three. So cheerful..

more up my sleeve

Robs wearing all the sleeves!!!

something up my sleeve

I have been inspired by everyone's ideas to reuse and recycle so we cut off the sleeves of all the winter long-sleeved t-shirts and converted them into short-sleeved shirts to extend the life-span of Robs favourite shirts for summer . The pink flower was made from the cut-off sleeve of the pink shirt! Pretty nifty..

on a roll

Got this pencil roll finished10 min AFTER the party endedthis morning for Rob's little friend -but got it delivered nevertheless!

time to bond

Chris and I got to spend the weekend at a Mother and Son fishing camp
