I come from a long lineage of 4-Hr's and I'm proud to say I've passed it on to my kids and next will be the grandkids!  4-H motivated me to learn many skills I enjoy today and this post shares my love of sewing!  

This jumper/skirt is a gift made for my grand-girl and includes a pre-made T-Shirt with an iron on fox with floral wreath!  A little bit about this fox!  I couldn't find a fox with floral wreath in the Cricut Access, so I combined a few images to make my own!  You can check them out in the Material List below!

Thankful for Education and Science


 As we meander a Path of Positivity, we are challenging you to "Be Grateful" and in the spirit of gratefulness we are having a sort of 'free for all' with no sponsors and no prizes!  It's all for the fun of crafting and sharing!  

I am grateful for teachers, education and science!  Yes, science!  

Some of you know by now, I was a music major and had little to no science in HS or College; but I'm grateful for the people who studied it!  The past couple of years have really been difficult for the medical and science industry as well as educators!  I'm grateful for their tenacity and knowledge!   

My sister is a science teacher and I'm very proud of her intellect and perseverance in the field of teaching.  If it weren't for the wonderful science educators, we'd have no scientists, doctors, veterinarians, physicists, etc!  Where would be be without them...in a world of hurt! ...literally!

So, it's true!  I know nothing about science except that we need it and I'm thankful for those who practice in that field and those who educate!   

*   *   *  

   We'd like to hear your ideas at Path of Positivity.  Come share them with us!  

Remember, you may share any sort of artistic medium over at PoP:  writing, cards, journals, scrapbooking, painting, sewing, baking, needle crafts, etc as long as it is positive!  The theme is always optional.
