Felt Fun
This weekend I came across the best craft book full of great felt projects – “The Cute Book” by Aranzi Aranzo (who also has a ”Bad Book” – for when you’re cute-d out). It’s full of the coolest (and yes, they really are the cutest) patterns for all sorts of creatures.
So my eight-year-old daughter and I did some over the weekend and we both had a great time – it’s really the perfect craft for all ages – and pretty cheap too!
So what it entailed was tracing the patterns,
then cutting them out of the felt,
then doing some sewing with embroidery thread and an embroidery or quilting needle (BTW, she’s using a very blunt quilting needle here – works on felt and safe for youngsters if you keep an eye on them),
and a bit of glueing here and there.
When it was all done, I ended up with this cute fish:
and my six-year-old just had a good time coming up with her own creations

So if you’re looking for a fun and affordable project for adults and kids, this is definitely a great book to check out!
