Long time, no blogging
Let's see...October 9th was the last blog post....oy. I went to Cheb (Czech Republic) and went thrifting with the girls here in town a couple of times. We had a craft day and I taught them how to make mini paper bag albums with tags...Halloween theme.....yes, using up the crafty crap. No pictures....I suck. We went to Lego Land, a pumpkin patch and the Munich Zoo. Did some Army wife stuff. Celebrated two birthdays. We just had another craft day on Wednesday and still no pictures. I taught them how to make bunting.....they used burlap...I hate burlap. Ugh. We made fabric charms and I left them all with supplies to make sunflowers out of coffee filters (which I had dyed ahead of time). I didn't get around to making a bunting until today.....I cut out the pieces yesterday and made it today.....no sew.....fabric glue and a glue gun. I realized that I had given everyone the toweling for the middle of the sunflowers, so I dyed more coffee filters and made rose/peony looking flowers instead. I made 21 one flowers and want to make more. I spent my entire 7 1/2 hours of free time crafting.....it was awesome. I haven't done that in forever. I need to do it more often. :)

Sounds like you've been busy! I love your bunting - such pretty fabric and perfect ribbon colors. The flowers are lovely, too. Have fun!
