Creative Caroline

I'm thankful for my Caroline who is always making things out of materials that we have around the house. I have stopped buying craft kits for her because she is so good at figuring out what to make just using odds and ends. This is my new favorite thing she "whipped up" the other day. She found a white piece of material in the costume bin which had previously been used as a sash for a jedi costume. She took that piece of fabric and drew a picture of a dog on it. Then she proceeded to cut up the fabric. When I asked her what she was making, she casually told me she was making a shirt. This time I really didn't think that she would be able to pull it off. A shirt. . . really? Well, the next thing she did was ask me for a needle and thread. I always give her a blunt tapestry needle when she asks for one. Look what she did! Lo and behold. . . a shirt! I'm proud of my little seamstress. :)


She was not quite finished sewing after she made the shirt, so she decided that she would mend one of Luke's Dinosaurs that had a hole in the neck.

My Nonny would be so proud.
