A genius idea...

I have just been pottering around on the Spoonflower site (I didn't win but thank you to everyone who voted) when I came across this fabulous idea of Evenspors. She has designed a globe that you sew together, insert a ball and taa-daa a big ball globe!

I know you can buy these, in fact we have an inflatable globe somewhere, but what I really like about this one is that the continents are in the Montessori colours. Evenspor has blogged about making it here and if you want to make one yourself, you just need to order 1 yard of fabric from her Spoonflower store.
