Daddy Sewing

Daddy has been working on a sewing project of his own lately and it has been very interesting to watch.... He is making himself a hammock to go backpacking.  This is double layer to accomodate a sleeping/insulation pad and a bug netting on top.  It is actually pretty cool, and it is kind of fun teaching him how to sew and the importance of little things... like pins and how to put the foot down on the machine... he is learning pretty quickly.
