Happy Friday friends! I wanted to share what we have been working on in phonics for the past 3 weeks. Now that we have reviewed our vowels and have them down, it was time to start working on beginning blends. We started off meeting Chef Blend and her recipe book for making blends. Afterwards, the students became chefs by wearing chef hats,.... Hat clipart by Krista Wallden .....got mixing bowls, spoons, and worked in groups to make blends using letter cards. After they blended their consonants together, they had to find the matching picture for each new sound. Next, they created their own recipes for each set of blends. Throughout our 3 weeks we covered s blends, r blends, and l blends. My students added our new blends to their recipe books each week. I sent their recipe books home today for them to read all their recipes to their parents. We also made our very own Chef Blends and added words that begin with blends to the bowl. We also completed lots of interactive journal sorts and matching to continue practicing blends. You can find the activities above in my newest Phonics Friend pack , Cooking Up Blends, here. .....and in my S Blends pack here.

As promised, here's the free tutorial for the Stationery Kit I shared with you on Monday for the Paperie Blog Tour. This little kit is perfect for holding stationery (of course!), to-do lists, recipe cards, EPP projects, embroidery projects, school flashcards, craft supplies, and whatever else you brilliant people come up with to tuck inside. I think this would make a fabulous Valentine's Day gift. Just pop in a few goodies from the dollar section at Target (notepads, short pencils, page flags, maybe even a gift card), and you've got an adorably useful gift for your kid's teacher, your best friend, or just about anyone else in your life! If you make one of these and share it on Instagram, please be sure to tag it #stationerykit and tag me too @fabricmutt. Okay, let's sew! Cutting Instructions Cut 6 low volume squares 2 x 2'' for cover patchwork. Cut 6 saturated color squares 2 x 2'' for cover patchwork. Cut 1 rectangle 6 x 6 1/2'' for back cover. Cut 1 batting rectangle 7 x 11'' for cover interfacing. Cut 1 rectangle 3 1/2 x 5'' for envelope pocket. Cut 1 muslin rectangle 2 1/2 x 3 1/2'' for envelope pocket interfacing. Cut 1 rectangle 3 1/2 x 4 1/2'' for envelope exterior. Cut 1 muslin rectangle 3 1/2 x 4 1/2" for envelope exterior interfacing. Cut 1 rectangle 3 1/2 x 4 1/2'' for envelope lining. Cut 1 rectangle 6 1/2 x 10 1/2'' for kit lining. Cut 1 muslin rectangle 6 1/2 x 10 1/2'' for kit lining interfacing. Cut 1 rectangle 7 x 10 1/2'' for inside pocket. Cut 1 muslin rectangle 3 1/2 x 10 1/2'' for inside pocket interfacing. Other Materials 2'' long piece of twill tape 2 metal snaps (You can substitute other fasteners like Velcro or a hair elastic & button if needed!) adhesive basting spray chopstick or turning tool spool or other object with a round edge pencil *Note: all seams 1/4'' unless otherwise noted Make the Cover 1. Arrange the 2 x 2'' squares in a 3 x 4 grid as shown above, alternating low volume and saturated prints. Sew them together to form a 5 x 6 1/2'' cover. 2. Fold a 2'' long piece of twill tape in half, wrong sides together, so that the short ends meet. Baste the short ends together 1/8'' from the short end. Center those short ends on the left side of the bottom left hand square of the cover and baste in place. 3. Use the adhesive basting spray to fuse the wrong side of the patchwork cover to the 7 x 11'' piece of batting. Keep the cover toward the right 7'' side so that there will be room for the back cover as well. Quilt as desired. 4. Sew a 6 1/2'' side of the back cover piece to the left 6 1/2'' side of the front cover patchwork piece. Use adhesive basting spray to fuse the wrong side of the back cover to the left side of 7 x 11'' piece of batting and quilt as desired. 5. Trim the excess batting off the cover. Your final rectangle should be 6 1/2 x 10 1/2''. Make the Envelope 1. Fold the 3 1/2 x 5'' rectangle in half, wrong sides together, so that the short ends meet and slip the matching piece of muslin between the two halves of fabric. Top stitch 1/8'' from the fold. 2. Following the manufacturers instructions, center the stud end of the snap about 3/4'' from the pocket fold and attach securely in place. 3. Stack the pocket on top of the lower short end of the envelope lining piece so that the edges match up and baste in place. Fuse the 3 1/2 x 5 1/2'' piece of muslin to the wrong side of the envelope exterior with adhesive basting spray. 4. Place the pocket lining and envelope exterior pieces right sides together with the top of the envelope (the flap that you'll be able to see) pointed away from the pocket. Use a spool to trace and trim rounded edges on the flap corners. 5. Stitch all the way around the outside of the rectangle, leaving a 2-3'' gap on one long side. Trim the seam allowance down to 1/8'' except for where the opening is. 6. Turn the envelope right side out through the gap, carefully pushing out the corners with a chopstick. Push the raw edges inside the gap, press, and stitch 1/8'' all the way around the envelope. 7. Attach the socket end of the snap to the flap of the envelope, carefully matching it up so that it will work correctly with the other half of the snap. Make the Lining 1. Fold the inner pocket rectangle in half lengthwise and press. Slip the 3 1/2 x 10 1/2'' piece of muslin inside, fusing it down with adhesive basting spray if desired, and top stitch 1/8'' from the fold. 2. Place the envelope on the left side of the inner pocket, about 1 1/4'' from the left edge and 3/8'' below the inner pocket fold. Make sure that the envelope flap is open. Spray a bit of adhesive basting spray on the main back of the envelope (not the flap) to hold it in place. 3. Stitch the envelope down by sewing over the original 1/8'' top stitching on the pocket part of the envelope and then sewing across just underneath where the flap folds down. 4. Fuse the 6 1/2 x 10 1/2'' muslin to the wrong side of the kit lining piece. Baste the inner pocket in place along the lower edge of the lining. Use a pencil or hera marker to trace a line down the center of the lining and the inner pocket, and then stitch over it to divide the pocket and lining in half. Finish the Kit 1. Place the kit cover and lining on top of each other, right sides together. Sew all the way around the outside of the rectangle, leaving a 3-4'' gap on the top long edge, preferably over what will be the back cover. Trim the corners. 2. Turn the kit right side out through the gap, gently pushing the corners out with a chopstick. Push the raw edges back inside the gap and press. Top stitch 1/8'' from the edge all the way around the cover. 3. Center the socket half of the other snap about 1/8'' from the right side of the cover and attach (both these snaps will go through the inner pocket as well). Attach the stud half of the snap to the opposite side of the kit lining, making sure that both halves match up correctly. Fill the kit with goodies and enjoy!
