Me, Sewing? Who would have thought!!

So, I decided that I wanted a sewing machine for Christmas!  I never thought I would be so excited about sewing.  I always thought it was easier just to find a good sale.  Which for clothes, I might still agree.  But for other things it is simply just fun!  I sewed crib bedding for Ayla.  I am so proud of myself.  There is a real satisfaction about making something yourself, especially for your family.  I may just want to quilt someday.  As for now, I have no desire, but that is how I felt about sewing.
 
For Valentines, I surprised Sienna and made a nightcap like Laura Ingalls wore.  She has always wanted one and was so excited when she received it. Now, I will make one for Ellie.  Maybe even Ayla ! 
 
To tackle dresses like Bethie and her friends is amazing.  Maybe someday I will try that! (See Erik & Karen's blog).
