Crafting with Children

April 12, 2012
I'm watching my friend's children today; they're six, seven and eight. They're also incredibly adorable how they dote on Felix and party with Penelope. This morning was a tad more chaotic than normal as I was still tying to finish my first look for project run and play. They were really good at steering clear of the new machine, but still eager to try their hands at sewing. We had a little impromtu crafting session, where I helped them each make little totes. Penelope was more interested in running around with the kids than sewing, so she didn't make one. It makes me wonder, when will my kids become interested in sewing? Ever? My interest didn't really start until I was in ninth grade, our school switched to uniforms and I wore pretty much the same thing every day.
