Embroidery evening with YW ONLY

Our girls wanted to learn to knit and embroider so we bought them some wool and borrowed some needles and they were able to Learn to knit a scarf each for  personal progress and we also taught them to embroider on a scrap  of fabric.


I bought them a white hand towel and they are going to embroider their names, or a scripture reference onto the towel and pop it in their ' glory boxes'
( maybe progress to 2 towels and embroider his and hers on!)
The white represents faith / purity / virtue in their personal progress books.

They also learnt to sew on a button and make a spag Bolognaise which can be used with spaghetti, nacho corn chips, as a chilli with rice ( some kidney beans  were added), in tortillas, with burritos, as a sheppards pie with mash potato, mixed with cooked pasta and baked with cheese on top, on toast, in a toastie, on a jacket potato etc etc
To show them how versatile a bolognaise sauce cooked from scratch can be when they are at uni or on a mission

Recipe
Brown 500g mince, with a chopped  onion, and tsp garlic , add 1 tsp Tom paste

Add 1 tin tomatoes, drained baked beans so no sauce, just beans, tin corn, herbs, And a jar of bolognaise sauce. Dolmio etc
