Last week I spent a busy time at the sewing machine and I think I may have my sewing grove back. Yipeeeeee! I have taken over one of the rooms downstairs to set up my workstation. It is so big that I have my sewing machine, overlocker, a few big bookcases (to be used for my books, craft books and material) and a large cutting table (the old camping trellis table) Now all I have to do is get some sort of hanging space so I can hang my designs up, put the ironing board up and a large cork board for design inspirations. Wow that sounds much more grandios than it is or I will ever be able to produce but it is a nice area to go to and sew that I can shut to door to-well I WILL be able to close the door once I unpack a few more boxes hehehe.
So here are the piccies of the children in their costumes for book week. The had to go dressed as a character from a book. There were lots of superhero costumes and princesses but there were some really good ones-like the gladiator with cardboard armour that was all cut out so the plates were overlapping.
So here are
MrJ as a Dinotopian. He relates EVERYTHING to dinosaurs, every. bloody. thing., so one of his favorite books is the series Dinotopia. About a mysterious island where people and dinosaurs live together.
MrS as Aragorn from Lord of the Rings. He has a bit of Lord of the Ring love atm. He is
valiantly attempting to read it and for a child who struggles so hard with school work that is a huge feat.
and finally there is MrB as a wizard. He spent all day in his costume, bless him, all the others changed out.
MsH didn't want a costume. I offered repeatedly but she decided not to.
All in all a good weeks work.
