On Tuesday Laura went to a craft class at the library. She made felt flowers for hair ties. Very cool. So when her friend came around the other day I searched out some old scraps of felt and they made some more.
I found a pattern for some little animals so today Laura made a little piggy. He is so cute. She has called him scraps. (she dismissed my suggestion of pork chop ;-) dont know why!)
One of the swaps that was sent in my recent yarn swap included a really cute cow apron. I commented on how Sam would love it and could the person who made it please let me know where I can get the material from so I could make one for Sam. Anyway I met a lovely lady from TNN the other day and she gave me a present. It was a cut out of the material for Sam and one of the other material that she used too. So I made Sam and Daniel an apron each. It is absolutely perfect becuase they often bake biscuits. Sam was so excited he would be able to help Laura now that he asked if she would do some baking so he could help! Anyway on her declination he decided that he would use it to make a sandwich and eat his lunch with instead! Oh yes and of course Jessa wanted one too. So I used a cut of the material I took off Lauras blanket when I rebacked it and upcycled it into an apron for her. I ran out of ribbon for the straps so I dug out a bit of bias binding and used that instead. (thanks to a hint off Grandmas apron that hangs in my cupboard) Apologies for the less than perfect picture - it was just before bedtime and they wernt the most co operative!
