OT- taking up hobbies again
My 6 yr old has a Penguin Follies show tomorrow. All the 1st grades have been studying penguins and the culminating event is a song and dance show. We were told we could make costumes or dress the kids in black and white-- however basic or complex we wanted...
So, D6 remembered that I used to sew a lot of stuff for she and her sister when they were younger and asked if I'd make her a costume.
I found a photo on line of a costume for an infant, and decided to make a pattern from scratch from the photo and design a penguin outfit for D6.
I am attempting to attach a photo of her modeling it this morning. She is happier than a lark with her costume and I had a lot of fun getting creative again... And it feels good to remember that I have some things I am decent at!
