Coffee Time!

By
10:30am is Coffee Time! 
Here is Jenni (at the back), our morning tea co-ordinator. With her is her sister Leanne. They deny ringing each other in the mornings to see what they are going to wear but I tell you... the number of times they come wearing the same colour or style is a bit eerie! (Exibit A, photo above. Not exactly the same but well coordinated). 

While we have our coffee, we have a few announcements, see some "Show 'n Tell", announce this week's "Happy birthdays". (Thanks for the love ladies. I had a lovely day!) and then have a little "Thought for the day".

Today I mused on the idea of how 'good' we are. Good enough to make God happy? Good enough to 'make it' into Heaven? Hmmm. I'm afraid not. Not even close. So how unreal is it that God offers us a free gift of not only complete forgiveness but also of the adoption papers to become His child! Wow.   Here is a good little poem which I thought was appropriate :)

    I love serving the morning tea. It means I get to talk to everyone!
    Serving with my sister and best friend this week was lots of fun.

Mini Christmas crocheted stockings by Mandy - Free Pattern

These cute little Christmas stockings were made by Mandy. There was no real pattern to follow so we worked it out easily enough by sharing crochet know how and made little stocking decorations until they were everywhere. Wil and Bev G made a heap! Here are some pictures and a pattern! A pentagon granny square folded in half to make a little stocking. Make them in whatever colour you like! Add some sparkle :) or a bell on the toe! Put a few sweets, a roll of mints or a roll of cold hard cash inside, hang them on the Christmas tree and you will be popular. Click "read more" below for the pattern.

Mitred Granny Squares by Janice

A project a day! I have so many photos of lovely things which have not yet appeared here on the blog. So, I am featuring a new craft item every day for 2 weeks, all made by ladies at The Craft Group. To continue… Project 5: Mitred Granny Squares by Janice Crocheted Granny Squares are in again and, as with all come-backs, there are clever variations. These mitred* squares are eye catching and can look stunning depending on the colours used. Janice made this green one which has a lovely 3D effect made by her use of various tones of graduating greens. It looks stunning in a whole finished rug. (*also spelt 'Mitered', depending on where you live).  Janice is then working on some other squares using bright coloured stripes, giving the finished product a completely different look. Nice work Janice! If you are feeling inspired, I found a lovely tutorial on how to do this version of a Granny Square. Click HERE to go to the "Crochet Again" b

Lantern making... a craft for kids

By

The school holidays are nearly over. Some kids have one more week. Why not get creative and make some pretty lanterns to hang in your bedroom? (Caitlin and Ryan... if you make one and take a photo, I'll put it on the blog!) A teacher at school made these with her grade 3 class.  I was the photographer, so I captured the pictorial step-by-step instructions.
