I am replying to this question after a long time. Infact my younger daughter who is home schooled in a Waldrof school and set up has stopped buying gifts. She is 10 years and has mastered the art of crochet and stitching. So now she gifts people with her hand made stuffs like sling bag, pencil pouch, mobile pouch etc. She uses old unused clothing for inner linings. Some of our relatives have paid her as a blessing for her handwork items. I have really got inspired by her. I carry her woven bag to work, so well done. It catches everyone attention.
Now we parents have got a new bigger place for our home school set up. We are getting it ready ourselves. So here is an younger father who will teach us carpentry. Looking forward to learning it after Diwali
