I spent some time this morning butchering a worn-out sheet. Some of the better parts I am saving for sewing projects, and the rest became kitchen wipes.
Last week I pulled out my old wardrobe planning booklets that I had made, which were very helpful in figuring out what I need to do next wardrobe-wise.
Among the books we've acquired over the last few months was a very interesting one: The Doll's Dressmaker, by Venus Dodge, which has lots of ideas and patterns for dolls' clothing. Most of them can be scaled up for human clothing.
The children are of course thinking ahead to Halloween and what their costumes will be. One of the older ones has put together a very impressive cardboard Stars Wars stormtrooper helmet, and is now looking for a source of EVA foam floor tiles for some other part of the costume.
