Knitted Farm Swap

Most evenings lately you would have found me knitting up a mini storm. 
Or needle felting flowers into my knitted garden beds *smile*
My friend Carrie from Crafty Moms Share has organised a wonderful Knitted Farm Swap
And I am so excited to be part of it!
Ten ladies from around the world are all working on squares to swap… 
Some are knitting corn fields, veggie patches, sheep paddocks, ponds… or flower gardens
And now my gardens are ready to start their journey to the States…

I can’t wait to piece our farm together…
I think I will have some excited children at Christmas time don’t you!!

A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 4)

And I am enjoying the fourth title in A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin. There are new characters to meet, old ones to revisit and back stories making motivations clearer.
The pace has slowed but it is still a great page turner!
Sharing at Keep Calm Craft On at Frontier Dreams and Yarn Along at Small Things.

Happy knitting,

Making bubble wands

Have you noticed how kids of all ages love playing with bubbles *smile*  

Bubbles are a little bit magical, pretty and transitory, and always bring delight!

A lovely friend of mine taught me that when you are having a difficult day, feel stressed or down… 
…blow some bubbles ❤
{isn’t that wonderful advice}

My friend is celebrating her birthday this weekend, so when Master D and I spotted some homemade bubble wands at Kleas and we knew we had to make some!

And since everyone loves bubbles, we’d make some for the mothers in our life *smile*

We used cookie cutters to make stars, hearts and flowers!

Master D picked out some pretty jars for us to fill with homemade bubble mix

Happy birthday to my lovely friend…. 
and
Happy Mothers’ Day dear mothers ❤

Happy crafting,
Kelly
