Car Mat

Inspired by all the possibilities that sewing with felt can bring, I spent a few hours yesterday morning making these:


Super cute when rolled up, and when unrolled they have almost unlimited car playing potential!


The green strip has dividing sewing which would allow for 6 cars (probably matchbox sized) to be stored in. The "road" section is just black felt with white felt stripes. I had a fight with Sally to get her to do the zig-zag stitches but we managed it in the end. The thread tension is still an issue between us some days. :P All in all, I think it's a cool way to transport cars for little boy's playing pleasure. I hope Cooper likes his.
