Doll-Making

On Friday I was lucky enough to share in the company of some lovely Crafty Mamas for a day of coffee, cake, chatter, and creating.

The very talented Kel offered to run a doll-making workshop, which was an amazing opportunity.  It never ceases to amaze me how much generosity of spirit there is in the crafting community,  and I'm so thankful to have connections to this group of women.

So while my beautiful husband entertained the children and made coffee; Kel, Zofia, Claire, and I spent the day happily crafting away.

 

And over the next couple of days, I marvelled to see some cotton and wool go from this...

To this...

Taking shape...

Almost there...

And finally complete...

Don't tell Paul, but I think I have a new addiction!

Real Men...

...aren't afraid to dress up in sparkly green skirts and take their son to a fairy party in the park.

Gee, I love my boys!
