A couple of days ago, Mika finished her first sewing project, a coin purse from the Alex Happily Ever Crafter Kit. She/we sewed it in a couple of sessions while waiting for Camila to get out of swimming class.
I have to say that she enjoyed it quite a bit. I did help her by threading the impossible needles (and dividing the thread into several strings so that they could be threaded in the first place) and tying knots. And I did sew one of the sides for her (after we did come to the conclusion that, despite the instructions, the sides had to be sewn if you wanted to put any coins inside) - but she did pretty much everything else herself, including sewing the buttons. Her stitches are still a bit big and not too straight, but so are mine :-)
Anyway, this is her creation:
