I love Santa however this year he decided to bring the girls Lego. Why Santa would think Lego is a good idea i have no idea however the girls love it. I however hate it because whenever they get it out it ends up everywhere!!! So this morning i decided to make a Lego Mat. I started out with a plan.......
I am such an artist........almost as good as Belly!!
The plan is...... the pink at the top left corner is the storage area. You then have water and beach at the bottom, a road going around and green grass in the middle.
I then went through all my scrap material, I am getting quite a collection (still not as good as my mums however) and got out anything i thought would work.
And Turned this.......
Into This.......
Now i have no idea how to do patchwork so the next thing i did was just started at the bottom and tried to sew them together as best as i could.
I then backed the entire thing in red ( I had a fair bit of that) If i had time and energy i could have made a different scene and made it double sided ( That is your challenge!!!) but i couldn't be bothered!!!! (yes i am that Lazy!!!!)
And presto......
Now the best part of my Awesome Lego mat is that i then sat down for an hour and played Lego with the girls.
I have labeled all the points of interest around Lego town Click to get a larger picture.
The Lego has now successfully been played with for an hour unsupervised and it is still in the one place
