I decided to get brave and try something new...sewing. For my first project I made a dress for Olivia. I could not have done this without some (okay...alot) of help from my mom, but I am VERY proud to say that I did it! I made a dress for Olivia!!! I sat and stared at the pattern and when I couldn't figure out what the heck it meant to "baste" something I called my mom. And when I thought I did a good job sewing the sleeves all by myself my mom quietly took them out and sewed them on right. Here is the finished product...
I decided it needed a little something, so I added a sash.
I think I'm going to try again. Maybe it'll be a new hobby. Now I just need a sewing machine...
You should come over and have a sewing party with me! NO joke... My mom can teach us how to make something new. Right now I am working on a shopping cart cover for my sister in law. :)
