Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! Rain and cooler weather and even a touch of fall color in the neighborhood means winter is coming and so too the desire to craft cozy items. I would love to make this fun crocheted llama, maybe it will happen? With a family wedding in Jerusalem and a shabbat together before the wedding, I'm rushing to get it all done, so lets take a look at the features from last week's party!

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! With Fall in full swing and cooler weather, I'll admit I've started a new knitting project that requires small needles and is quite tedious, especially since I'm trying to figure out the pattern myself, nonetheless it feels great to have yarn and needles of some kind between my fingers! I hope you try something new this season or return to a cozy craft of some kind! Take a look at the features and get inspired, there is always time for creativity!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here. This week has been full of conversations about knitting and a plan to go with a friend of mine to learn how to knit a traditional Jewish knit kippa from a woman (who is the great grandmother to some of my friend's grandchildren, so she has a family connection, and will do a better job of writing down the pattern in Hebrew!) Now, this plan involves a 2 hour bus ride each way, and multiple visits so here's to hoping it really does happen as I've been needing to do this for years! On top of that, my 20 year old daughter came home for shabbat and suddenly announced that she wants to learn to knit and crochet, and my heart nearly exploded! Later she said "I guess I really am becoming you....." and it sure seems that way, so maybe she'll be able to take over this blog someday, here's hoping! In the meantime of course, I will continue to sail the ship happily. Let's take a look at last week's features, shall we?

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! Fall has arrived indeed, and we have changed our clocks, so everything feels different which is inspiring! I feel like making some cozy crafts, then again maybe I'd best get a head start on Chanukah? As always I continue to spend my creative time on my art, so crafting has generally taken a back seat, but since I always go all out with Chanukah decorations I can't stop now! Okay, lets take a look at the features from last week's party!

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!

Thanks so much for joining me here on Craft Schooling Sunday! Now that Fall is truly here, time to get crafting cozy gifts and all things that one can do indoors! I'll admit I bought 5 huge skeins of t-shirt yarn, since they were just 5 for 100 shekels, which at $6 a skein for 600-700 gram is quite a good price, hmmm, maybe I need more? I think I'll be doing some fun pouches for Chanukah and maybe a bit of embroidery on round placemats, time will tell! And you my crafty friends, get crafting, but first a quick look at the features might just be a great idea, enjoy!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! Thanks so much for joining me here. The weather here in Northern Israel is starting to cool down, and I'm thinking that it just might be time to once again pick up the crochet hook, and some of the projects from last week's party are certainly inspiring me to do just that! At the least a project for some upcoming car trips, or maybe to have ready for December gift giving! So friends, get inspired and go make something!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, the Succot addition, thanks so much for joining me here! With Sunday being the last day of Succot here in Israel (it is one day longer outside of Israel) I will be sad to say goodbye to the Succah as it is truly as very very special time! And because this was leap year with an extra month added to our calendar last spring, the weather is nice and cool, which makes it even more enjoyable! While there is no creating (meaning art, craft etc.) during the holiday, it is permissable for me to get on the computer and make this party happen, so enjoy the features from last weeks party, and friends, it is surely time to get started with holiday gifts, so what will you be making?

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!

Welcome to Craft schooling sunday, thanks for stopping by! With the week long wonderful holiday of Succot starting tomorrow night we are busy putting the final touches on our succah, so running to post this and wishing everyone who is celebrating an amazing joy filled holiday! And now, for the features from last week's party, enjoy!

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday thanks so much for joining me here! With Yom Kippur coming up on Tuesday night, that means that Succot is in just a week, yikes, so time indeed to get those creative gears spinning. I of course have more than enough already made from previous years, but I do love to add at least something new each year, hmmm to that! Last week's party was full of crocheted projects, many of which would also be great succah decorations, so is that my cue? Not sure, but it certainly means time to get crafting! First of course, take a look at the features from last weeks party, and then get off the computer!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! With Rosh HaShana starting Sunday night, this is the last party of the Jewish year! Then we have just 2 weeks to enjoy the preparations for Succot, and all things succah related which is the time to get crafting! My succah decor is more or less ready, but I always love to add some paper decorations and maybe it is time for a painting or two? For now, the new year is coming, so enjoy the features and give some thought to how you'd like to enhance your life and the lives of others with creativity! Wishing you and yours a happy sweet New Year!
