My day started with a quiet read of Mixtape – the only anything I manage to read from cover to cover lately. There’s an article by Sooz in reference to Handmade Help that particularly resonates. I have wondered and worried often if handmade donations are deemed more an insult than a comfort and stitches of support are misconstrued as pity.

The Mr was sculpting froggies in wax – eventually destined to be cast in bronze:

There was finger knitting in the sun:

And ‘pinger knitting’ in the sun (only with ‘noodles’):

And a scarf was produced:

When we finally ventured out late in the day, there were beach gymnastics. Don't you just wish you could still snap your legs in the air, giggle and balance as straight as an upside down soldier?

Love the scarf (too too cute!) and that photo at the beach needs to be framed...
I have the same thoughts and .... well, the same NAME... as the comment above.
Spooky.
Lovely Happy Sundays - Bring on winter I'm ready!
Sounds like the perfect day! Sundays are always like that here in WA - we don't have Sunday trading and we only have late night shopping on a Thursday!It is frustrating when i run out of craft supplies on a Sunday :)
Our little village is also nice oldfashioned with closed shops, i love it.
The frog is beautiful and the knitting too sweet.
the beach photo, wowie!
We're welcoming summer, a lazy day in the garden, some crafting, playing with water and sand, eating soup with salad.
I always try to stay far away from the shops on Sunday. I'd much rather be relaxing or crafting. Great photos (I especially love the Pinger knitting)!
The last photo is beautiful. Your sunday sounds just about perfect!
Your weekend sounds truly blissful! Cannpt wait to see the frog in bronze...just beautiful!
Lazy autumn Sundays are lovely ....certainly if there's a beach nearby . And you obviously all got to do what you liked .
So clever of the youngest to make such an elegant scarf and her sibling's finger-knitting better than anything I could produce . And the handstand !
You're all far too talented ! It just shows the rest of us up .
what a perfectly wonderful way to enjoy Sunday...sure would love to be able to balance like that on the seashore. What a lovely bunch of photos.
Sounds like a perfect sort of Sunday! X
Oh yeah! That's my kind of Sunday!!
I never thought the day would come when the sight of a handstand made me cringe a bit. There's no way I could do that now. I'd break something, probably something terribly important!
Sounds like an amazing and restful Sunday.
Beautiful post ... makes me feel all relaxed ... impressive handstand ... never was much of a champion in handstand action so I regard with great jealousy...talented man in house too ... would you guys just stop it!!!!!!
Ditto (to the above comments!)
Just love lazy Sundays and appreciating the last of Autumn!
We were dancing in Grandma and Grandpa's lounge room, tinkling on the piano, feeding the Kookaburras who visit and having pretend cups of tea.
Love the last shot..reminds me of Mrs Myrtleandeunice in her callisthenics days!
Love Jen xo
