We love to make stuff, especially stuff that is block-y in nature! Check out our outside-the-box, block ideas - they're easy to make from found materials, and can lead to open-ended play, unexpected ideas, and lots of fun!

Sewing - Small Creations
The book work has stalled, but I do feel the energy returning! In the meantime, I've been working on a little flannel blanket for Isabel, from the tutorial by Dana. Very small scale, but that suits me right now!
Elise, I think you'd have a better finish if you sew the opened binding tape on one side, then fold it over and top stitch in on the other side. You'd have more control going around corners. Gorgeous project! A.D.
Thank you for the tip! That's exactly the stuff I need to learn... Wish we lived in the same city and could do sewing projects together. And gardening, and cooking, and all the fun things!
