Some sewing fun

I have done some sewing for the girls – I found a cute “twirly skirt” pattern on another blog and used her simple guidelines to make a couple of darling Valentine's Day skirts for the younger girls.


On Thursday, K decided not to go skiing or snowboarding, and class was canceled for her, so she stayed home and sewed with me. Her little friend, A, came over and the two of them worked on making skirts for themselves. I should have been a little more selective in which materials I let them pick, because they chose fabric that frayed easily and then the second layer was just too gauzy for them to easily work with. Oops. Well, we all learned. ;)  And honestly, they are DELIGHTED with them - Mom just notices a little more.

About Me

Welcome to our family blog! We appreciate you stopping in and reading about our family. Life is a journey in more ways than one.... this blog shares our joys and challenges with "homesteading" on just one acre in suburbia, raising a LARGE family, cooking, canning, gardening, adoption, waiting for the time to be right to move to the country (and preparing for that time), and finally, other musings of this mama's heart.
