wheat weavings waiting to be made

I have been thinking of wheat weavings for some time now. I found wheat stalks at the store that I can use and I found a book that reminds me how to make them. In the 1980's I made quite a few wheat weavings and sold them at a crafts fair. Now I have to rig up a way to soak the stalks because they are so long. I have a little heart I have made to see if I can remember anything, I think it came out good so I am on my way.

Vampires and Witches and demons....France, Oxford Manuscript, Time travel

Spring has sprung and the rain is at bay,

Flowers are poking their heads out to play,

Jays fly and squawk in sunshine rays,

And hearts find love hoping spring will stay.

I enjoy making these little flags. I used previously acquired craft supplies. No new stuff except picture off of a computer site printed on already used paper I had sitting around.

Book I am reading now

The first of March
Snow covers the ground,
Sheep on the hill,
New lambs abound.

They wait for food
Huddled in the sun,
Under the big Oak tree
A bleating morning song is sung.

Spring is just around the corner,
Birds are flying through the trees,
Squirrels dancing on the snow,
A frosty morning breeze.

We'll wait 20 days
for Spring to show her face
As the creek runs wild
And Winter leaves with grace.

Lotte Reiniger - Hansel and Gretel
