Elly is like her mother – she leaves a trail of stuff wherever she goes. This is true of all things, books, food, toys, clothing – but it is especially true of crafting. And extra especially true of sewing.
TW’s new sewing machine is in the family room and when TW has not been using it, Elly has been. She made a stuffed rabbit yesterday. We woke up this morning to find pieces of fabric and stuffing covering every surface of the floor – from the family room to the office. (The dog helped make a bit of that mess, though.)
She spent today, taking him apart, putting him back together, and making clothes for him – the stuffed rabbit, not the dog. And she just brought me a little quilted scarf she made for him.
I think she needs to make a real quilt, don’t you?
What a joy to have a creative kid… despite the mess. I don’t do fabric arts. Too “fiddly” for me. Envious of those who do, though!
Finally read “Boys, Wolves…” Hmmm. Not a big fan of the Dad, but it was an interesting read. Thanks!
I think she should make a quilt too Denise….since I LOVE quilts. Now THAT I’d love to see. ~Joy
