Sewing


Now that I'm home with Ildri (for the time being), I have needed to find a creative outlet of sorts.  So we got a sewing machine and a book on sewing for children.  I haven't been near a sewing machine since high school home economics, which was way too long ago.  But the projects in the book are pretty simple and straightforward, so I'm not doing too much sweating in trying to accomplish these creations.  My first finished project (seen above): a soft rattle.  Dave calls it a chicken, but I think it looks more like a cross between a chicken and a giraffe (a chiraffen?)  We'll see if it passes the Ildri chewing test!
