My boys and their scarves!

Well,Hunter and Jonathan had to jump in on sewing too!! So,I let them make scarves as well. Jonathan used some of the scrap material Granny sent.Hunter used an old sweater. I just cut off some of the bottom! It was a bit harder to sew because the fabric was stretchy,but for their first time they did pretty good. I had to guide the fabric more with the boys than I did with Callie.Shows you that girls are more patient than boys are!! Thanks for stopping by!

Proud Mom Moment!!

I am having a proud mom moment!!! Callie, my 7 yr. old just finished her first sewing project!!! My mom sent her some scrap material to practice learning to sew on a sewing machine. She made a cute little scarf!! It is quite short,but still,it's cute!! I'm very proud of her!! It took me alot of practice learning my machine.....she has picked it up really well! She sits in my lap and guides the fabric through the machine. I do put my foot over hers to help her try to get an even speed since my sewing machine doesn't have a speed control. I do recommend if you are wanting to learn to sew on a machine ,get a speed control,it would make it a bit easier to learn!! She was scared because she would press her foot on the pedal and it would go fast,so I help her,but other than that,she actually sews it herself!! Thanks for stopping by!
