 Superhero capes have been on my “to-make” list for ages, and since one of my goals for July was to make dress-up clothes for Johnny, I figured it was time to give it a go. Of course, it’s more fun to be a superhero if you have fellow superheroes to hang out with, so all [...] Here is Emma’s latest felt creation, inspired as ever by this post. I think he bears a striking resemblance to K’s stubborn horse, and so he is winging his way to her to join the rest of the farm. =) [...] The kids recently decided that their dolls were suffering from a severe clothing shortage, so we threw together some instant gratification felt outfits using a technique I remember using as a child.

Well worth the two or three dollars I’ve spent on felt for the bear, [...] Between gorgeous weather and a new baby, crafting has been a bit slow around here lately. I did put together this new geometric shapes template for Emma to use with her felt shapes on her travel felt board this weekend. Go here for other geometric shapes templates, and here to learn how to make a [...] No time for Flash Cards has a very cute hand cut butterfly craft. There’s a great song to go along, as well as a couple of book suggestions. I love the Japanese Cherry Tree craft from this site, too – also with book suggestions to go along! I love these footprint ducklings from Just For [...] MATERIALS: One sheet of felt – make sure it’s the regular kind, not the stiff type.
