Who Knew?????

One of the difficult parts about teaching is that I watch my students make projects, but I don't get to "play" along. So this week Sara took on the roll of teacher, so I could play student. It was SEW much fun!!!
Who knew you could take some clothes line, a glue stick and some fabric ( including the "what was I thinking when I bought this fabric") and turn it into something fun and useful?
What a fun evening of creativity and laughter. With Sara's wonderful teaching we all became basket makers! Each one as different as the basket maker who made it. I can't thank Sara enough for introducing me to one more obsessive hobby!!!!
When I got home I decided it needed a bitty something....how about some seashells that were part of Meghan and Dustin's wedding decor?
Didn't the students do an incredible job? I LOVE Sara's purse in the background. I need to make one of those pronto!
So let the Easter bunny know that I am doing my part.....I am twirling clothesline endlessly. This is horribly addictive, but so much fun!!!!
