Wherein Thrifting and Sewing Share Top Billing

So I was at Goodwill...I grabbed this totally adorable fabric out of the bins.  I loved it--it has a small geometric vibe but also manages to reference the ikat trend that I feel myself being manipulated into liking.  Despite sacrificing my personal hygiene somewhat in a fruitless search for a flat sheet of the same fabric, I headed home.

Location, location, location.

When it comes to letting kids be creative, I tend to be a bit of a weenie.  It's not that I mind them getting messy - it's just that I'm not too fond of cleaning up after them.  I've found that it helps immensely to have a dedicated place for it...preferably outside.

Where will your kids be crafting this summer? Inside or out?

Are you ready for them? I know I'm not, but at least I've got a start at it.
