We couldn’t find anything big enough, until…

“Tommi, why don’t we use the cloth below the Christmas tree? 👀”

So we took that.

17:50. We have fabric!!!!!

I call Nonna D: “Nonna Gorix gave me something! I am coming for dinner, let’s make this cake 🤟🤟🤟”

19:20. I get at Nonna D’s.

The kitchen table, where we used to sew, is ready for dinner, we can’t use it.

We go in a bedroom, and she tries to figure out how to convert the cloth in a cape. We gotta cut it and change the shape!

19:50. In the meanwhile, I am cutting a piece of paper to make an asterisk, then we are transferring them on black fabric, cutting it three times, to finally compose an asterism.
