A Cat A Day 2013 #73

ImageI really felt the need of a little creativity tonight as a way of relieving the stress of trying to get my students through their exams. I made a nice lined pencil-case using some fun multi-lingual fabric from my collection. I’ve never made something like this before (my past experiences are of clothing and patchwork quilts). I have signed up to the lovely Craftsy and followed a free class. It was rather fun working with my iPad on the table following the kind and patient American lady as she told me what to do.

Of course, Milka helped.Image

I have just got home from Year 9 Parents’ Evening. It’s been demanding, because I have five classes and teach four subjects. I have met and talked with 46 sets of parents. I now know I can do 2 1/2 minute-long appointments. I feel rather proud of myself.

Milka came to sit on me as soon as I plopped down onto the sofa, the little sweetie.
