Sewing Project

We are finally pretty much back into our normal school routine. It has been a little slow to come, but I finally feel like everything is coming together. The kids have started back to their after school activities and I think very ready for fall and a change from summer. This year I was definitely ready for summer to be done and gone and since fall is about my favorite season I am enjoying this time. 
Bethany and Tess are back in their sewing class and this past week made these cute little bags. They really did an excellent job on these. I am so glad they both love these classes and they are learning so much. I love seeing all the things they make. Bethany has been busy making pillows for Christmas — just little accent pillows to throw on a bed or sofa, but very cute. She is earning money to do her Christmas shopping, which I know is quite a ways off, but it does take time to make them.

Always a Project

Bethany spent the last couple of days measuring and cutting wood and working on making a couple of boats — one for her and one for Tess. I’m not sure where she got the idea from, but she has been busy and happy, cutting and sanding and painting. My first instinct when she started to work on this was to ask her to find something else to do as the cutting and sanding was making a mess. But, she was having so much fun and we have kind of run out of energy and things to do so I let her keep on working. She had a blast and then she and Tess painted them together. She says she will be making a few more for people. She can almost always think of something to do.
