#57 Wooden Memory Games & More

Argh! These memory game sets from apple n amos! Love!!!
They come in 12 or 20 piece sets & are sealed using beeswax & olive oil, they come packaged in a canvas bag with a ribbon closure.
The alphabet set is for practicing making words, such a fabulous idea for fun learning isn't it?
They are made by a super talented stay at home mumma to a 3 year old & range in price from just $10 - $ 24, one of the many benefits of buying directly from the source hey?
Master C is begging me for the robot, number & alphabet sets. Doesn't miss a beat that boy!

       

Can't resist a couple more beautiful things from the Apple n Amos shop...

  
 

Rainbow 'hand kites', rainbow wooden stacking bowls, wooden eggs & a wooden fruit set.
Lovely.
Something else that is a bit lovely is the apple n amos blog, quite an interesting read!

#52 Sew Liberated

For a while now I've been a follower of Meg McElwee's blog Sew Liberated, I check in every now & then to dream of having talent such as hers & resolve to buy one of her books & give it a go! I do need to stop waiting for my local fabric store to get in more copies & just order it via her website.

This is the pattern that took me to Sew Liberated in the beginning & made me an instant fan, the sweet pea pilot cap modeled by her very cute first-born Finn.

 

Since then I've fallen in love with the huck finn hat...

 

this oh so cute apron...

 

this very comfy looking mei tai baby carrier...

 

This embroidered placemat & these fabric number cards. Sweet much?

 

Those things & a billion others. Plus, I'm just in awe of her really. Once you've seen her blog you'll understand why!

Meg's original book of 20 sewing projects is called Sew Liberated & signed copies from her website cost $21.95. Now I'm no maths genius, but I'm fairly certain that means that you would be paying just over $1 per marvelous pattern?

The second book Growing Up Sew Liberated is due out on June 14th & costs a whole $1 more than the first... That's enough maths for me for one day though.

 

I want that teepee....
