My recreation leave from work started today – I now have a week off – time to hang out with my teens (and drive them around!) and catch up with friends. I have a loooong list of things I hope to get done over the next week, including some sewing projects. I always find the spring break a busy time – lots of gardening and spring cleaning to be done. In our extended family there are a lot of birthdays over the next couple of months, plus Christmas to prepare for. Hopefully I get a few things checked off my list.
Today I worked on a quick wine bottle tag.
I was inspired by these two cute projects I spotted during my blog reading this morning….
Toast Greeting Card (Free Download) from Oh My Handmade
Elegant Recycled Wine Tag from A Little Hut (these would look great in festive Christmas Colours).
Sarah found a bit of time this week to work on her first quilt. She hopes to complete the quilt top over the holidays.

Ha ha, I just love the pun on that bottle tag – we are big fans of puns in my household. And I just love the colours of your quilt, Sarah, they’re divine! Can’t wait to see the finished product.
