As time marches on and we’re still in lockdown, I hope you’re all OK and adjusting to this new “norm”. I keep telling myself, it’s temporary and it’s for our own safety, but I know that some of you may be struggling from being socially isolated.
I’m amazed at how resourceful people have been to keep their spirits up – penning poetry, making up lyrics about COVID-19 and putting it out on social media for people to enjoy. Virtual exercise classes or dance classes in the comfort of your own home.
Today’s project reminds us of sunny destinations – once a vaccine has been developed, international borders will be open again and we will be able to visit again, hug again, see friends and family again, so don’t despair – we’re all in this together!
The Tropical Oasis Suite evokes so many memories of our stint in Asia – palm trees, sandy beaches, sailing, yummy food and the very casual way of life and lovely people.
I’ve been making these origami shirts out of colourful patterned paper since time immemorial. They’re so easy to do and quite economical – you can get 4 shirts out of one 12” x 12” sheet, with four 2” x 6” left over strips which you can then use 4 card projects. First I cut the 12” x 12” sheets into four 6” x 6”, then cut each 6”x 6” sheet down to 4” x 6”.
For metric users 30.5 cm x 30.5 cm cut into four 15.2 cm x 15.2 cm pieces, then cut these into 10.2 cm x 15.2 cm pieces, leaving 5 cm x 15.2 cm strips which you can use for 4 card projects.
