A Little Stuart Little Bed.

Laura is reading Stuart Little right now. When I told her she would need to write a book report at the end she grimaced. But she was ecstatic when I told her she could build a few things from the book as she read. So started the idea for the little bed and next will be his canoe. She LOOOOVES to make 3-D art so this was great fun for her. There are still some grumpy eyebrows when I mention the report but I think she will be able to push through.

She used her new sewing machine for the first time to make the tiny blanket and pillow.

Laura handstitched the end of the pillow with pretty red embroidery thread.
