Cars Playmat

My son wanted a play mat like his sister's farm mat.  So, I made him a quick Cars mat.  Sorry for the crappy picture.  Basically, I used this fabric to sew the roll:

Then I added iron-on fabric pictures of radiator springs. My son showed me where to put the road and the Cozy Cone!  His roll contains three pockets. I had to adjust the size of one pocket to accomodate Mater.

Not the most professional job, but not bad for an hour of sewing!

Farm Play Mat

I wanted to make a travel play mat for my daughter.  She loves animals, so I created this farm play mat.   Sorry, there is no pattern.  I free-handed he actual roll using leftover fabrics from her baby quilt and a piece of Baby Gap ribbon.  The farm scene is free-handed from felt pieces that I glued on using liquid stitch. I really wanted to keep the sewing to a minimum!  The roll has three pockets to store her small plastic farm animals. The barn opens up to reveal a chicken, a stall and some carrots.

Halloween Lunch

Ok, not the best photo, but it is the only one I have. This is a little lunch I made for the kids to celebrate Halloween. Cheese on toast (cut out free-hand!) and some Scrabble Cheez-its!
