First look at the ocean.

-
Jenn and Chris and the boys left for Myrtle Beach Friday night after Tyler's t-ball game.  They drove all night so that the boys would sleep on the trip. Saturday morning they sent us this picture of the boys first look at the Ocean.  I thought that the picture was priceless.  Had to share it!
How I wish I was there with them!

I have to agree...PRICELESS!

Isn't it fun seeing life 'again' through our grandchildren's eyes....it's a different kind of feeling even than when it was our own children. Such beautiful little treasures.

Thanks Cathy for visiting my blog and leaving such nice comments - It's always a treat to see show up!

Hugs, Karen

Oh, look how sweet!! The firemen's convention will be setting up at the MB Convention Center this week. If the boys like firetrucks, I'm sure they will enjoy stopping by. This is the first year we have missed in 27 years!!! The convention is usually in July and they changed it this year and it is the same week we are on vacation. In fact, we are in Williamsburg, VA. now!!

Walker/Wheelchair Bag Tutorial

Some of you asked for this. This is literally one of the EASIEST, most appreciated projects that I have ever made. I timed myself while I made this one and it was finished in under 1/2 hour and that included refilling bobbins, taking pictures, and searching the button box for two matching buttons. They are even faster if 1.) you don't do all of the above and 2.) you make them on an assembly line. Step 1. Cut a piece of fabric for the straps 4 inches wide by 14 or so inches long. If you have a very lightweight fabric, you can double it or use press on interfacing to back it. Step 2. Cut two coordinating rectangles approximately 12 to 15 inches by 15 to 18 inches. This is very loose, you can use vary the size of them. Pin those together on the bottom and halfway up the sides. Step 3. Press the 4 inch rectangle in half lengthwise with wrong sides together and sew around raw edges, then zig - zag the edge. If the fabric frays really bad, you can go over it again. Step 4

Sharpie Markers and Alcohol = Really Quick Art

What a fun, creative process!  Grab all those sharpies that are hidden in your desk drawer. Find that bottle of rubbing alcohol. (Vodka or hand  sanitize might work, you can always experiment) Dig out a canvas,  or go buy some,  nothing like having some blank canvases hanging around.  Draw some wild and crazy lines. Fast and not a lot of planning work best.  Hit it all with some alcohol.  Allow it to move and blend.  I use a brush for the alcohol,  You could use a spray bottle or eye dropper,  I just want a little more control on mine.  And re-outline with a black sharpie!   That's it!  Fast Art!  I will be teaching this next Friday along with two other  fun projects in Mayville, New York.  For more info go to: https://www.facebook.com/ARTRetreatatthelake
