Yesterday in my linky love post I shared about the great felt leaves I had found in my bloggy travels and today we got down to business making some *grin*.
This is a fabulous fall project to do with your kids :) The sun was shining again today so we headed outdoors to collect maple, poplar, alder, redbud, oak and other leaves. If you plan on using real leaves and not images from your computer make sure you pick your leaves on the greener side because we had a few that were crunchier and they definitely don't do well when handled by little hands! LOL.
As you can see we didn't strictly stay with fall colors either. L being the girly girl had to do hers in pinks and purples. Hey it's all about personal interpretation :)
and he was just whipping along with the needle and thread to! I love doing craft projects with all of them. We're nearly to the point where each of them can just see what mama is doing and pick up their supplies and go at it... a few more years and the little guy will be there :)
To personalize our project a little more I thought it would be great to embroider the names of each of the leaves right on them!

LOVE them. I'm impressed your littlest one is using a needle - I'm not so sure we'd have a good outcome if I gave one to Isaac...but I could try. :) Definitely want to make us some of thoses. Very sweet. xo

Spot on with this write-up, I truly suppose this website needs far more consideration. I’ll probably be again to learn rather more, thanks for that info. best online casino
