Spins and Needles

We have become fans of this fun get together of music and crafts. On this particular night we went to the Museum of Civilization for a Mad Hatter night. Daddy made a family coat of arms from felt (which I will post soon). I worked on pin up girl tile coasters and this metal crown. Not so bad for an hour and a half of crafts.

Charlotte Loves to Craft

First it was Spins and Needles event and now Charlotte has taken to mending bicycle messenger shorts for her Dada.  We have so many arts and crafts planned and I cannot wait to play with her, letting her creativity and imagination run wild.
