My friend Jeanette had a craft day for the girls and we made these cute felt Halloween bags for our kids. I had Ty with me and thought it was simple enough for him to design and sew with me. He designed a monster head, which is cute and I don't have a picture, but I'll get one soon. He told me the colors and then sewed them all on himself! It was fun for him.
Ridge designed a robot on paper and decided it was what he wanted. So we cut the robot out of felt and he sewed his design on the bag. I cut a cat design out for Carly, but she decided that she wanted it to coordinate with her Halloween costume, which she decided will be a pirate this year. So, she sketched her design on paper, we cut it out and ...it's still a work in progress! Ridge and Ty's are done and we've sewn the bags together. They have been carrying all kinds of loot around the house in them. Carly will be done by Halloween, I'm sure!
The picture of Sean is a colored pencil sketch he is working on of an elk. I love love watching Sean draw. He is very talented. I thought his mom would like to see what he's been up to.
I just couldn't leave Ty out, since I don't have a picture of his bag, so here is Ty giving me a "look". He really was happy, just posing for the picture.
Hope you're having a great Fall!
