In 2005, when she was in P2, I cross stitched a carousel horse from Quick and Easy Cross Stitch magazine, numerous times (couldn't remember how many) and affixed them to a cardstock as a personalised bookmark. I remember one of the girl actually laminated it! And, Billie actually lost it a day later and I have to do another one for her.
One year later, I made cross stitch paperclip bookmarks for the girls. I used different coloured threads and paperclips so that no one is duplicated.I was running out of ideas so for the following year, I used the beautiful pictures and verses from Kim Anderson Calendar to make laminated bookmarks for the girls.
I did not do anything for her P5 class. The whole class moved up to P6 together and I made personalised notebooks for the girls. I covered each notebook with cardstock and made a teabag folding topper on the notebook.
As for this year, I doubt if I'm doing anything for the class. No particular reason, but I'm busy with my other crafts. But I made some notebook and bookmark sets so that I can sell them, and Billie chose this for herself.
She also saw a notebook I had, so I gave it to her.
As for the years to come, we shall see.
