Hi, I'm Gauge!
Today was take your child to work day. I worked in the monster studio with my mom.
 |
| First we had hot cocoa and checked emails and messages on social media. |
|
 |
| Then I picked out fabric and cut out a stuffed monster. |
 |
| First I sewed the limbs. |
 |
| Ta-da! |
 |
| Then I cut out face pieces.... |
 |
| And sewed them down. |
 |
| This is the face I made. |
 |
| And then we pinned all the pieces together. |
 |
| Then I sewed all the pieces together. |
 |
| Then I stuffed him, and mom sewed him shut. |
 |
| I am done. What do you think? |
 |
| Then I wrote this blog post! |
All the photos (save the ones I made of him working), and this post itself, were all created by my son, Gauge, who is 7!
