Day 29

Day 29: Feeling very guilt about my Carbon Footprint & all the trees that went into my great piles of paper. Can’t plant a tree in my apartment block so did the next best thing – planted two Honeysuckle Bushes in  pots in our communal garden. Photos of the real thing and my stitching of it.

 

Day 28

Day 28: Ok, so today’s the last day before the weekend away at Vuleka Centre, in Botha’s Hill with 25 other crazy Pack Scouters for lots of fun & laughter. I have piles of paper to take with me for – Scavenger Hunt, Journals, Trading Cards, Scouts Own & so on. Me under a huge pile of paper.

Day 27

Day 27: As an Explorer when you get to the place you were looking for e.g. Fountain of Youth. – You need a flag to plant and claim it for your country. So each group of Explorers need to design they own flag. Will put photos of flags when I get them.

Day 26

Day 26: Continuing with getting ready for the Triple P (Playful Pack Scouters Palaver). If you are an Explorer you need to know how to use a compass – so busy preparing a Compass Base – where Pack Scouters will follow a 10 point compass and also learn how to find directions without a compass – lots of fun. So one small compass in stitches – the red needle of the compass will always point North.

 

Day 25

Day 25: I’ve been working on a Scouting Event called the Triple P for Pack Scouters in KZN. The theme is Explorers – so everyone will need to make a pouch to put some food rations in. Here are photos of the real thing – closed and then open as a small picnic cloth. Then of course I had to stitch one.

 

Day 24

Day 24: Working on a problem, not getting anywhere fast! My brain feels foggy & slow, every which way I turn there seems to be a fence or a block of some kind. So here is a row of herringbone stitches – blocking my way forward. Going to take time out on the problem. See what comes up in a day or two.
