I feel lucky, then, that at least I had a little notice of this parental task. Or so I thought! I knew I had to make flares for Monday, but miraculously that turned into Friday. This required a little quick thinking this morning.
When we eventually agreed on a pair of jeans to be sacrificed, I realised that, unusually, they had no side seams. So, with a bit of help from Amy Butler (her fabrics are just perfect for this!), I whipped up some godets and enjoyed letting those hours and hours of expensive degree study come out to play.
You have great imagination. My favourite last minute request was "do we have any icing sugar?" which Little Angel came out with just as we were leaving the house for school.
