Following on from the disastrous car seat cover, here is something I did manage to do to make Boy 4's car seat more comfortable.

I considered making a thing like a crayon roll but I did make some crayon rolls quite recently and I also don't want to be reminded when I inevitably lose a couple of hooks and ... Read the Post...
