I picked up Soule's book The Creative Family from the library a couple days ago. It's filled with great activities to do with the kids - perfect for the just started summer holiday. Here's the first thing we tried: embroidery. This is something new for me as well. We spent yesterday afternoon sitting side by side sewing away. This is what Sarah made. Isn't it lovely?!
Here's what I did...
And she drew the butterfly and the cute ladybugs on it when I wasn't looking...
I think I will embroider the cute drawing. Maybe I can make a quilt out of of Sarah's drawings... so many fun thing to do!
Aah, lovely and certainly one for the family heirloom box. Have you seen the bookmark project in Soule's Handmade Home book? We did that a while back and it's very very sweet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for admiring my latest dress, the book is Girly Style Wardrobe (there's a link on my post).
