Way to go, ...I'm still impressed you did this!! Way to go, Mom! What important skills you are passing along to your daughter while at the same time spending time encouraging her! This is awesome!!<br /><br />I never did learn how to sew. I tried to learn a few years back and found that I have a distinct LACK of ability to do so. It felt like something that I would have to spend a LOT of time and energy to get the hang of and seeing that I have neither these days, it'll have to wait if it ever happens at all. Sewing is a skill a WISH I had learned earlier because there are oh so many ways to use it! So yay for you teaching Big Sister early on!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772667430500306088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1903409844961124425.post-58353312879500380452013-01-07T06:45:18.849-05:002013-01-07T06:45:18.849-05:00Well done, Big Sister!

Unfortunately, sewing is not my thing, despite having had plenty of lessons and opportunities to learn.Amy @ Hope Is the Wordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07949836482747469686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1903409844961124425.post-89953514566262055272013-01-05T11:39:40.385-05:002013-01-05T11:39:40.385-05:00Baby doll pillow would be great.

After that a small purse, or you could do it before (just 2 squares of fabric and some ribbon).Ticiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17970101432834731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1903409844961124425.post-45093551768269295352013-01-04T10:29:04.386-05:002013-01-04T10:29:04.386-05:00That is absolutely wonderful, Annette!
