I can't believe she was going to throw them out.

Just because of a few little rips ...

Grinner

I'm a winner AND a grinner!!!

It has been a great mail week.

From top left corner:

• My first purchase of a clothing pattern. I have admired this reversible coat ever since Amy Butler released her 'Love' fabric line and it appeared in the promotional material. The pattern has only just been released and I'm going to attempt my first proper garment. Wish me luck!!
• An oinky brooch that I won over at Cath's for admitting that I love bacon ... even though my rabbi might disapprove. Thanks Cath!! Here's a better photo ...

• A twirly dress made for my princess by this crafty princess. It was a little swap we arranged and her princess will receive a rather pink cushion with her name written all over it!! Thanks Kate. Ella is twirling all over the place!!  :-)
• My copy of the latest Mixtape magazine. Full of wonderful articles and how-to's. Unfortunately, this may well be the last Mixtape published due to Justine's new and rather busy family life. But I hear whispers of something exciting coming to replace the gap left by this wonderful publication. Can't wait to find out all about it!!
• And last (but certainly not least) some yummy kona solid fabrics. Now don't jump up and down about me breaking my fabric buying embargo. I WON it!! Thanks so much Dana and Fabric Shoppe  for this yummy little bundle.

And another thing keeping me grinning this week .... we took our kids to see snow for the very first time.
It was so magical watching them discover the fun to be had!

But I must say, I could use some warmer weather. I'm SO over the cold.

Wishing you a sunny day!

Thank you!

When we first met Ros, the swimming teacher, Jake refused to put his face anywhere near the water.
2 lessons later, she had him diving in happily.

She is a miracle worker with all kinds of kids who need that extra bit of help and support in the pool.
In a country like Australia, learning to swim is essential.
Ros helped Jake achieve this, while having fun and ending up a confident little person in the water.

Jake has now 'graduated' to the next stage (lessons in a big pool with a larger group of kids).
Thank you Ros for all you have done!!

A little token of our appreciation ...

A linen scarf with Little Folks voile on the ends.
