Sew happy together!

One thing I vividly remember from my childhood was my Granny teaching me to sew a button. Sew, I mean so, while Grandmother was here visiting (and assisting me with my sewing skills) I asked if she would show Ella Grace.

I am REALLY glad she did. Made Ella Grace's day, and she has even reminded me about it a couple of times already!

You know, got to get a picture with lil' brother and his tongue out first!





So much in the moment. Happy little girl!

Projects


While Grandmother and Great-Grandmother were here, I had some personal instruction time on Grandmother's sewing machine. I had sent her a picture a while back of some curtains I would like for Ella Grace's room. She let me know how much fabric I would need, I picked everything up and we got down to work while they were here.

Over the course of the week, with no set schedule of sewing times, we put these little beauties together.

Aren't they just some pink cuteness?

I really had a great time sewing with both of them. We got in our share of laughs, I had a few re-do's, and managed to keep Ella Grace and Major occupied with other things for the most part (the pins were awfully intriguing!).
