Today has been quite all over the place - a few community engagements including attending the end of year volunteer get together for our local neighbourhood centre. My tree of life pieces will be given out as token recognition of the grand work of our volunteers.

But I did get time to finish 5 Name Leaves - these are leaves for children in recognition of their birth and naming.

I also finished thirty Peace Leaves for giving away to encourage peace.

What about my new tool for bending metal; and I think I might need a new pair of leather gloves?

I'm now off to the neighbourhood centre event. There will be pizza and red wine when I get back home and settle in for Friday evening.
