This past weekend I had some down time since it was raining and I also started with a sore throat and cough. I thought I’d work on a needle felting project. I made a flamingo for my granddaughter, for her pre-K graduation, but I forgot to take it with me to the graduation! Of course I remembered it as I was parking. I will give it to her soon!  I worked on a llama and I’m pleased with how it turned out! I’m still learning the craft, so I am enjoying kits and YouTube videos to work on my skills. Here are the finished products! Here are the kits if you’re interested in trying them! Click for the , click for the .

I have also again started making roses out of coffee filters. I made a lot of them about 10 years ago, and have been wanting more roses around the house and to give as gifts, so I started working on them again. I’ll post pictures as I complete them.

Sometimes you make plans, and then things happen–like getting sick. Yesterday was so beautiful, finally, and I was laying on the bed or couch all day. Today I’m feeling a little better and hopefully tomorrow even better. The weather looks good for tomorrow so I hope to get out and plant some things after work. I have a lot of flowers, herbs and veggies in the greenhouse just waiting to get planted! I can’t want to taste the cucumbers and salsa I’ll make and see all the flowers in bloom.
