April and the Sweet Pea, our Flower Of The Year.  The fairies really enjoy the sweet “peas”, they are just like candy!  May brings us cherry blossoms, it seems we’ve gotten up early enough in the morning to catch the fairies as they are waking up.  One is stretching, the other is almost invisible as she sleeps on her bed of moss.  In June the honeysuckles are in full bloom.  It appears that one of our fairies may have been consuming a bit too much nectar!  Her hair is all askew and her wings have disappeared (even fairies know one should not “drink and fly”). 

Knowledge of the following stitches will be helpful:  straight stitch, lazy daisy, couching, stem stitch, double stem stitch, double cast on, French knot, blanket stitch, satin stitch, bullion, cast on, and drizzle.  Doodle cloth will be provided for students to use in class.
