Monday making

It is cold and wild and windy outside today so we are having an inside day, making stuff.

Lucy has been making monsters...


I have been making brownie for afternoon tea.


And sorting out my WIP pile... (some new little BIG girls pencil cases and more oilcloth purses)


...and adding more to it! (love that planning stage sorting out fabrics, linings, and zips!)


Isabella's desk: before leaving for school she was making origami butterflies and doing an intricate pastel drawing... Oh to be 6 and have all the time in the world!


I hope you too are enjoying your Monday, wherever you are!

    Lovely weather isn't it? We've had the playdough out although not as colourful as yours! I have to agree with Megan - you have a great variety of fabrics!

    We are having similar weather here in the UK and it is supposed to be summer! Grrrr. I love to visit your blog, it is always a colourful happy place. Wish my fabric stash was like yours! Can I have a brownie?

    I love playing with playdough - shame my boys have outgrown that now :(

    Can I see russian doll fabric in that pile of WIP?

    Brownies look scrum too - I'd ask for one but expect it would get squashed in the mail ;)

    MMM brownies. Might have to make some later. Love how creative your girls are. Perfect weather for it (and I wish I was still 6 too!)

    Lucys little playdough monsters are so cute! The photos have reminded me of some I have of my now 20 year old doing exactly the same, I'll have to dig them out! The fabric stash is so yummy, and I bet the brownies were too!
