a little bag for a little girl

On Sunday I made another little satchel bag from the tutorial at 'Ruby in the Dust' for my toddler's friend Lily. I bought the flower fabric from Bernina for the lining and I used a design from the book "Embroidery for Little Miss Crafty" by Helen Dardik for the flower but just changed it slightly so there was a bit of applique to match the lining. I really like this little bag :)

A fab website 'Lil Magoolie' posted about my bag with links to Helen Dardik's blog and website- both are absolutely gorgeous!

a morning at the beach

What a beautiful day in sunny Tauranga- I took the girls over to the Mount for a play and to meet up with a friend and her 2 little ones. Amelie liked making "ponds" and Stella enjoyed the sand. I used to think it would be really tricky to take two kids to the beach by myself but I am slowly realising that its not that hard and its really worth it!
