So after building and rebuilding my millionth spaceship I decided that my boys were going to help make something for me. Of course I didn’t tell them we were building a sewing machine till the end. Otherwise they would not have been so enthusiastic about helping me. Although they are now trying to figure out a way to now make it really work.
A looooong time ago I pinned this LEGO Sewing Machine tutorial from Such Designs. Isn’t Carrie’s fantastic! It’s perfect, with a presser foot and everything. I wanted one. And we certainly have some LEGO in our house, so I thought that would be easy. Unfortunately we had like none of the pieces Carrie used. She also ordered some of the pieces from LEGO in order to make hers. I am not willing to bring ANYMORE LEGO into our already LEGO filled house.
So this is my interpretation of her LEGO sewing machine. If you have a little LEGO lover in your house I’m sure you will have these pieces hiding around somewhere.
These are just the pieces that I found in our LEGO pile. But these pieces can obviously be changed out for what you have at home.
Now to keep the kids from tearing it a part. They’ve already stolen the cord, I guess that piece is a hot commodity.

lol, I know it was so much more fun than making another spaceship. They really should sell little sewing machine kits, Lego has every other possible kit.

That is TOO CUTE, I actually brought my boys in and showed them the picture and told them to make me one!!
Conni, I love it! Hope they can make it for you! The hard part is keeping them from stealing the pieces back once it’s made.
How adorable is this!! What a fun little project :) Thanks for sharing this at The Weekly Creative.

Hi, a fellow hsoomchoeler visiting from the hop! well, yeah, homeschooling is kind of a limited subject, but you are right, it is really our one big hobby/job so we think about it a lot and write about it a lot. I do think though, that when we share what we do, crafts/lessons/read alouds and resources we use, that even non-homeschool moms might find something useful/fun they can do afterschool or on a weekend, so I figure it is all good and we can all learn from each other. it’s nice to meet you, I love the name of your blog, very sweet.
Thanks so much Mario. I’m so glad you stopped by. I hope you’ll follow along.
I am in love! Pinning!
Ahhh thanks so much Tara! I really appreciate it.

Thanks so much Ashley! I really appreciate that, my blog is just starting out and I need all the help I can get! lol.
By the way I was actually surprised at how much my boys liked making it with me. I think it’s the first time they have ever made something other than a spaceship or car.

I love this! I’m going to have to find a way to work one of these into my Lego Christmas village!
