Another reason that I'm happy to be home... my sewing machine! I missed it while I was in London. I've already done some Christmas crafting for the kids.

First up, a towel cape for Ellie. I gave the twins a towel cape for their second birthday (five years ago!). I figured Ellie's version was long overdue.

Unfortunately, I don't have any photos of Ellie with her towel cape. She was so happy with her present that it went straight to the pool room. She ran into the bathroom and hung it up, ready to be used that very evening. Heather said it was the first time ever that Ellie had voluntarily hung up her towel.

So, here is a photo of the girls opening their other presents.

I've also made a towel cape for Leo for Christmas. I'm pretty sure that Leo doesn't read fushmush so I'm safe to post my creation. Leo loves Spiderman so Mum suggested a Spiderman themed cape would be a winner. I'm pretty impressed with how it turned out. I think Leo will love it. (Andrew did :D)




My towel capes were inspired by LJC. Thanks for sharing your fantastic ideas.
