Sew Crafty Saturday: Block Family





Dan is working on a guitar build in the garage, so I often send the girls outside to play while he putters away with his fancy table saw. The other day, Lilly came in with this awesome craft project that he set her up with. Dan made her five wooden blocks and told her to draw a member of our family on each one. She drew Daddy on a skateboard, Mommy in an apron,  herself in a princess dress, Iris dancing to Beatle music, and Hendricks with a baseball cap on. She also put everyone's first initial and a small picture on the back. What she drew is just amazing, in my humble mommy opinion. I don't save everything that gets made around here, but these blocks are going nowhere!

  5. Love This! I personally think you should patent it, you know kinda like the personalized decals of family stick people you put on your car, but in block form! A new family business?
