Busy sewing

I have put my projects on hold to sew a few things for Kelwyn's new waldorf school. He starts going 2 days a week in the Kindergarten program tomorrow! We will also continue with our homeschooling the rest of the week with Little Acorn Learning. Last week I whipped up 16 bean bags filled with lentils and a bit of lavender. Of course I could not send them off without a few for my little ones to toss around. I dug through my scraps and found some cute fabrics. Turned out really cute and I can imagine the children tossing them to each other as they sing songs.I also have been working non stop to make colored pencil holders. They took a bit more work and time, but I finally finished up last night and they turned out great. I am glad to have them finished so I can continue on with my fall sewing plans. Adeline's birthday is in a couple of weeks and I am planning on making her the ice cream dress from Oliver and S. I am also getting the knitting bug again with these cooler nights and end of summer. I am working on the February Lady sweater, which I meant to knit last winter but did not get around to. I need to get started on hats, mittens and slippers for the little ones. It will be chilly before I know it!
