Sew a Softie - The Crafternoon

It begins with needle and thread
that's how the magic is bred;
some fabric, a little stuffing,
and still it looks like nothing.

Now comes the fun part -
you begin working your art,
and as you sew your design
the magic begins to shine.

You stop for tea and cake,
and then go on with your make;
you work a little faster,
magic is a stern master.

With tea, conversation and fun
your softie is quickly done,
and you hope to return soon
for another crafternoon!

We are once again joining the Sew a Softie project

where my niece Dana (8) is a 'Kid Ambassador',

serious in her mission to spread the joy of sewing.

To that end we've hosted a crafternoon

where Dana showed how to make a heart softie.

We've made a garland out of the hearts

to show that you can make softie decorations

to cheer any party.

And there was even a student hiding underneath the table...
