Another fun day with the "gang". There was so much going on today, that I just know I will forget something and hopefully, Jan will pop in and help me out. Pinky brought books and magazines for us all to go through and take home. Thanks, Pink. April brought Mary some unique little spheres that grow as you add water to them. You put them in a bunch of flowers and they will keep the flowers watered...very interesting. Thanks, April.
April brought her birthday present from Lyla. She absolutely loves it! It is a journal that Lyla has decorated every single page (front and back, too) in mixed media style. You could tell, April is thrilled with it. Good job, Lyla.
Jan was good enough to cut out all the flags we are going to make into prayer and garden flags. We are giving ourselves a little over a month to get them done. We will all make 6 to trade with one another.
Can you tell Karen is having a great time today???? She was working on some art journal pages and loving every minute. There was lots of laughing going on, as usual...some of the topics we pick to talk about.
Mary brought fabric that she found in a garage sale for our next project...making prayer, or garden flags. We are all thinking this will be such a fun project. We will make each other flags to trade.
April was getting a head start on all of by completing a flag today! She used permanent pens and beautiful color. Pinky thinks she is going to get that one...we'll see...
Pinky just started a new rag rug. Her friend, Fran, gave her pieces of sheets that were already in a ball. Today she added a bright pink to the pattern already started. It is going to look great when she is done. Note how interested Rocky is...looking for goodies again :>))
Our faithful Rocky is overseeing our work, but also looking for goodies :>))
This is April's finished flag. I am really sorry this pic did not show how bright and colorful it is. Jan, if you have a better pic, maybe you can post it. Pinky wants this bad. :>))
Mary was working on cards and stationary today. She was mostly using two stamps that she had made previously...a sun and a fish.

Oh, it was a fantastic day, AGAIN! I just love you girls. Don't we just have the best time EVER? YES, we do!!! So happy for Maddy being our latest winner! Yay!!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. What is THAT hanging from April's neck? It's almost as bad as what hangs from her upper arms (except she keeps that covered up.) I guess I could wear turtlenecks. Teehee! Hey, girls, that's another topic we can get some laughs from!!!
Thanks for hostessing, Mary! ...and for posting!!! Nice job!
Your group is even better than I thought. I had the impression that you all got together to work on the same projects. I was excited to see that you each bring what interests you sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI am catching the flag flu. I'd be interested to know how each of you displays your flag.
We all are excited to try the flags. I was mulling over ideas this morning...It will be so fun to trade with each other.
ReplyDeleteDon't you all wonder what it is that we laugh about so much????
All I know is that when I leave one of our homes, I feel charged up and ready to go. The laughing is good for the soul...
God bless you all today.
Keep watching for our next give-a-way!!!
I know first hand how much fun you have together on one of your Tuesdays. You're all amazing and talented women and a heck of a fun group of people to be with. It's a shame I live so far away or I'd be begging to join you every week. Thanks again for picking my entry in this weeks giveaway.

Maddy
