Sewing with DGD

DGD was here on Saturday she likes to make things, so we made these.


We made 6 in total, 2 of each fabric, they are shirt cuffs, unpicked from the sleeves and sewn along the edges. It gave her some practice using the sewing machine. They aren't big enough to hold a mobile phone but then she is only nine and doesn't have a phone yet.

The rest of the shirts won't be wasted, they are being turned into tops for me.

I think it is lovely when young children want to learn to be creative like that.

That's a great idea. I think children do want to learn crafts.

What a wonderful idea! Maybe it's a nice way to wrap gift money, or to store a small work-in-project, for instance a beaded bracelet or necklace, or a set of doll's clothes.
