Anyway, my creativity bounces all over the map of interests and possibilities. This used to bother me very much until I learned to just accept the flow. I have maintained an interest in several things through the years such as cooking or scrapbooking, so there's a few brownie points for me! My latest and once again very intense pursuit is making felt cookies for the girls to play tea party. Well, and for my 2 yr old son as well. He can't stand the fact that the girls do anything without him. They are so simple and easy...and I had some leftover felt from {cough} a previous project.
It's basically just felt with some batting in the middle and I hand-sew the beads on with quilting thread so they stay put. The edges are blanket-stitched with embroidery thread. They can easily be washed when it comes time for that and I really am happy to finish a project so quickly! I know this is only a phase, but the girls are loving it.
On another note, gratitude today expressed for:
13. voices of my children as they happily play together
14. desire to reflect the creative flair that God imprinted on my soul
15. a precious email from an old friend
16. laughter in our home even in the midst of sickness
