Friendship Bracelets

It doesn't seem that long ago that we would sit down all of the girls from Rebecca to Amanda, get some huck weaving cloth and have everyone cross-stitch or embroider on raining days.

Now those girls have families of their own.

But the embroidery floss is still at the lake, carefully tucked into baggies and sewn together into a book so that each colour is distinct and separate.

Meighan and Ceilidh came home from the Abbottsford Airshow with friendship bracelets on their wrists and with the skill to make one of their own.

Thus, a lovely afternoon was spent under the porch, the floss pinned to either the thigh of their jeans or onto a high-legged stool.

All hail embroidery floss.
