Last Sunday, my niece spent the night with me which means we MUST work on a sewing project. My niece is a wonderful child, she is always quick to help and follows me around when I'm running a mile a minute in total disorganization. After we cleaned up diner for the boys (my nephew, son and son's best friend were also spending the night). I asked Brittany if she would like to pick a sewing project. She is anxious to make a Lazy Girl Chelsa tote (back pack), but we didn't have the materials on hand. Instead, we decided to work on a couple of in the hoop embroidery projects.
After careful consideration, we decided to make a cell phone case and chapstick holder, both designs from
Embroidery Garden, the site has the most addictive embroidery designs. Brittany
spent several minutes searching through my stash for the perfect fabric for her projects. She finally decided on black, white, poca dot fabric with a coordinating hot pink stripe print. She definately has an eye for coodinating fabrics. I don't believe she could have selected a better combination.
We decided to flee from all the boys and we went down the hill to my mom's house to stitch out the projects. In no time at all, she had two very cute accessories to go with her Mudd pocketbook. I decided that the chapstick holder would make wonderful party favors if she ever decided to have a sleep over of her own (I may have to work on her mother about that one).
We ventured out to our local fabric store and selected fabric for her backpack. I guess that will be the next project we tackle. I honestly can't wait! I hope that she enjoys the time sewing together as much as I do.
