Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Pretty in Pink

I thought it was about time my sweet Nadia had some new clothes, so I began with knee length bloomers, then a very full half slip petticoat and a bra top . . . so she's half dressed. :)


My fabric of choice was a soft cotton batiste and to finish all three pieces with a touch of femininity, I trimmed them with an ivory crocheted cotton lace. I shall finish her complete outfit over the weekend.

No sewing tomorrow, as I have grocery shopping to do otherwise there will be little to eat next week. I hope you all have a lovely weekend, I'll be back on Monday.
