Robelle Parklands

June 2, 2011 by Shellie Wilson

Recently we attended the Robelle Parklands opening and was thrilled to find so many hands on activities for the kids.

Here are a few of the snapshots from the day along with more information on some of the artists.

One of the exhibits/stalls they had was by Mealie Art. Pastels were available for any budding artist to have a go and start drawing on the concrete. Above is a picture of my 3 year old  drawing a Rainbow, note the stunning Octopus created by Mealie in the background. If you take a look at her website you will see how amazing her art is.

You can check out a full you tube interview with her here. You Tube Interview or visit her website for more information.

Next was Felting with Mieke Den Otter and her Husband. Tucked away in a corner of the parkland we made a little felt snake. It only took 20 mins  or so and was lot’s of fun. It was so much fun that I am hoping to book into one of her classes for a little more felting fun (info on her blog) .  Take a look at her blog as her pieces are amazing and she was such a lovely lady too.

Free Crochet Pattern – Ingrid

Ingrid is a soft and inviting doll, and the pattern is perfect for both beginners and experienced crocheters. The finished result is not only a cute toy but also a handmade gift that can be cherished.

The Free pattern instructions are clear, concise, and easy to follow. I particularly appreciated the simplicity of the instructions, making it accessible for crocheters of various skill levels.

Ingrid works up relatively quickly, making it an ideal choice for those looking to create a charming doll without a significant time commitment.
