Embroidery

 We've been living in snow globe lately, big fluffy snow falling down slowly - ALL day.

 It's been perfect weather to bring out the watercolors and embroidery thread, sipping on tea and listening to Elvis singing Christmas songs :)

Hope you had a wonderful week as well

Drawing with thread tonight, one peaceful stitch at a time.

freezie scarves

I'm not sure if this happens only to my kids. They will be ecstatic to get a freezie, and then cry because it is too cold on their hands : (

 So one rainy afternoon while watching RIO we made some scarves for our freezies. 

I used leftover pieces from other projects. Some were felted wool, others just nice and soft.

At first we embroidered patterns, but when time ran out, we simply added buttons and cut  slits.

So quick, so easy and now freezie eating time involves only smiles : )
