A little sewing fun!

As part of a school service project the kids had made fleece tie blankets at school last Friday.  They both decided it would be fun to pick out their own fabric and make their own.  As a mother trying to save money I first said, "don't we have enough blankets."  Then I realized I was saying no to a fun brother/sister creative craft activity and off to buy fabric we went.  Sam picked "Green Lantern" and Ellie of course picked her favorite colors.  Ellie did the cutting and Sam did a bit of tying.  I must say I didn't help until the very end when Ellie needed hers done so she could take it to bed.  now I'm a proud mom of some great blanket makers.  They are now thinking of who they can make blankets for

next.
