Sometimes when I have holed myself up making things, one by one the babes find their way into my den to poke around.
It usually ends with them making straight for the scrap bag to rummage around, cut and sew, and when Mama vetoes sewing, they sellotape instead.
I sometimes don't really know WHAT they are making (shhh), but whatever it is, they're really happy making it.
It's a very satisfying kind of work, one which I feel privileged to watch.
o - my - goodness! where did you get the firetruck fabric?!? i know we live on opposite shores of the atlantic, but i'm telling you, i have searched and searched for the perfect fire truck fabric for a cape for my four year old. i have found none. i was looking for yours! oddly, the only ones we could find, had a firefighter, baring his buff chest. my son and i were both weirded out, but that's san francisco for you!!
