Pa Project


In a case of seeing your new car everywhere, I have been thinking lots about accordions. Lil Q may not remember but when he was a tiny guy he really wanted to learn how to play the accordion. I asked Rhi how he knew about accordion, but who knows where little people learn things.Recently Rhi told me she really liked the song "Come with me now" by the Kongos because it had an Irish sounding section in the middle of it. (well she didn't know the name of the song or band but I was able to discern them). Its a really great song and can be added to my ongoing cleaning, running list. In fact I was going to use it as my favorite song for September but have decided to post it early. Well I think it is due to to the fact that there is an accordion in it.

In first for Pa, just the other day, someone requested straps for the accordion!
Here he is clamping the shoulder pad to strap so he can sew it.


While the strap was being commissioned,  the fellow spotted this wee fellow and wanted to use him as his color inspiration.

 Here is a Happy Pa, you would never know he is in the Slytherin house! We also learned that unlike Guitars, accordion's use two straps.  Alas he didn't make a pattern after he finished the first, but of course he was still able to make another. One is finished and the other is almost there. Pug photo bomb to boot. Sometimes I wonder if it hard to be that talented.
