I spent Wednesday with Crissy teaching her how to sew. I had made up a vocabulary list for her and we went through basics and then on to a few extras such as darts, pleats, and zippers. Her first project was a rice bag to heat in the microwave to put on your tummy or neck. Once she was done with that she was on a roll and we did a Walmart run to find a pattern and some fabric. We had so much fun picking out patterns and fabric. She settled on a skirt pattern and brown corduroy with blue flowers. She got some extra sewing tools, such as pins,pin magnet and a tape measure.
We started cutting out the skirt about 130 and had it done by 400 that afternoon. Crissy put in a zipper all by herself, I was very proud of her. What a fun day and then we had homemade rueban sandwiches for supper. Yummy.
