LeeAnna has asked


did you go to the beach as a child? did you like to collect shells?
build a sand castle? have a favorite swimsuit or toy?
If no beach, did you go to a lake or river?


We went to the beach rarely.  We had a cottage in the Muskokas.  I swam off the dock in a freshwater lake.  I don't recall having much in the way of water toys.  We did have inner tubes from large truck tires.  I loved to float in them.  I still love to float on an inflatable!  It is the perfect way to spend a hot afternoon!

I love beach vacations now.  Especially in the winter!  I love to collect shells and beach glass.  Walking along a beach is such a lovely thing to do.  

I like that I got to have an art day with friends last week.  I also got to have an art day with my niece.  Two socially engaging art days in one week!  How blessed am I!

I like that the children in my neighbourhood play outside.  Yesterday, while walking the dog, we saw a very cool castle some little kids had built!  Oh, I love the imagination of children!  I wish I had been able to get a photo of it!

   I am glad that  LeeAnna  asks these questions.  It is fun to think about the answers! did you get school clothes and shoes for the start of school? Did you look through the enormous Sears catalogue at all the possibilities and dream?  Remember going to the store with probably a mom, and trying on clothes? A shoe store for your "school shoes" Back-to-school shopping was not done in our home.  Mom bought clothes when she found a good bargain.  Mom sometimes would sew or knit for us.  We also got hand-me-downs.  We were always clean and appropriately dressed for the season.  I hated the ugly footwear she would buy for me.  I now have a very large collection of gorgeous shoes!  Lots of sparkles! My family got together this past weekend.  Cousins, aunts, and uncles all came together for a barbecue at my home.  There were 30 of us all told.  14 of which were under the age of 16.  It is lovely to get caught...

Slow Stitching Sunday

Image
 I think my little fish is finished.  I had thought about adding beads but there is enough sparkle on this little fish.  Some loose threads need to be clipped or trapped underneath when I stitch it into its home.  I had so much fun stitching this fish that I have started another one.  I am also thinking about doing a butterfly in the same way.   They will all find a home in the right project eventually.  In the meantime, I will enjoy the slow stitching!

 I am excited to participate in this grow your blog party!  I still feel like I am pretty inexperienced at blogging even though I have been doing it for a while now.  There is always something new to learn.  I am an artist who loves to play and explore with just about any art material!  My focus lately has been on fibre art but I do play with paint and photography as well. I have these napkins, threads and fibres to give away.  All you have to do is leave a comment on this post.  I will draw a winner on February 1.  I would love it if you became a follower too but that is not a requirement.   http://vicki-2bagsfull.blogspot.ca     This is the link to Vicki's blog to find more participating blogs! Thanks for visiting! The 16th comment won!  That is Denise Bryant.  Please contact me with your address!
