swimming 8/10
and
swimming 7/10
someone……got……..her……….hair………..wet!
sorta.
swimming 6/10
Yes.
M. finally figured out that she can stand up in the shallow end.
Repurposed shirt
into some shorts for M.
and then I made a few more pairs-
My girl,
and her machine.
No
swimming news. Instead: rainbows,
a couple of drawings of me holding a baby doll and a shoe,
and three strawberries picked this morning.
Have a good weekend.
more
smocks. I changed the width of the binding on these which made it easier to sew around the armholes. I also think it has a neater more finished look (the pink/red one has the wider binding)
swimming 3/10
tomorrow. maybe.
swimming 2/10
M. did not get her shoulder wet.
M. did go one step lower into the water (for 20 sec.) + let the teacher hold her while picking out a toy + held on to the teacher for dear life while enduring one round of ring-around-the-rosie.
we’ll work on the shoulder tomorrow.
Thank you H&M,
for M’s new favorite accessory.
(M. told me when to take the picture for each of these shots)
swimming 1/10
-M. got the lower half of her body wet. Apparently she’s all done with swimming classes.
-post swim was pretty great though (Mom’s favorite part too) Very important swim bag sewn last night.
-this guy loved it.
M. plans to get one shoulder wet tomorrow. Stay tuned.
Art smocks
+ art kits,
for some very special artists.
From one of my Japanese craft books?
Nope.
+have a great weekend.

PVC coated cottons:
I wish I had more photos of the shops and markets but unfortunately I was too busy shopping.
+ thanks to my brother, who not only organized this trip, but spent hours in the markets (well, drinking beers in the pub) while I drooled over fabrics.
Amsterdam
and home again.
I’ll post my fabric finds this afternoon.
Weekend:
iPad,
cookies from some very nice neighbors,

and Darf
Hope you had a great weekend too-
Look
what I found today.
M. found a lost treasure today too.
Happy girls over here.
Today
I got my charger/battery in the mail,
and they got haircuts,
I wanted to try something different for S,
but I may have to clip all that “style” off tomorrow.
