Sew fun...

I have wanted to learn how to sew for like, well, EVER! It was something I just never did or tried. Jason knows how to sew, how funny is that? He learned at some point in school and has proven to be useful... He made some of the curtains in my old house :)

don't mind the wet crazy hair, she just got out of the shower

I have been yearning for a pillow case dress since Madison started walking, but I never bought one. I was holding out hope that I could make one :) Well, she is almost 5 and I tried it today :)

I like the ones with the bow on only one side best :)

Jason has been going to teach me for a while now, but we just never get to it. Today, for some reason, I got sick of waiting on him so I read the machines manual and went to it... I made a few mistakes, but once I figured out what I was doing it was super easy :) I may try another one tonight since I have a TON of fabric left!

you can glimpse the new cabinets and appliances in my kitchen in this pic...  :)

I used this tutorial for the basis, except I did not do a lining... I was pleased how it turned out and I think that if I keep messing with the sewing machine, just might figure it all out!
