Last night, Wendy's Mom (visiting from Texas) was kind enough to give us a Sewing 101 class. She was a seamstress in a former life, so now, on her annual vacation to visit her daughter and family, she's been roped into, well, showing us the sewing ropes.
Cooper, Ava, and I trotted down with my sewing machine and fabric in hand, and set to work. Paulette went over all the stiches, but more importantly how to thread the machine!
Joey came to help me round up the kids and by that time, I'd made two cloth napkins (trying to go green and stop using paper.) I'm going to try to work on the rest so I have a set of 8 this week!
It was a simple project, but it got me acclimated to my machine, to sewing, and now I can sew on Joey's name tapes if I need to!
Next up, a dress for Ava!
