I love to craft and I love homemade things, but I have to be honest that sometimes I'm just no good at it. I've also loved the idea of making things with the sewing machine for my family but I never could keep a stitch straight. Well, I had been begging Cody since late last year to get me a sewing machine. I told him that it would be great. I could make Rylie grip bags and the girls some cute dresses. His reply "oh, please tell me you won't be that mom and those won't be our kids". Yes, he went there.
Well, Cody (ME) went to get my sewing machine for Valentine's Day. I love it. I spent more then he thinks I did, so shhhhh! I've already made Rylie a grip bag (with another almost done), each child a pillow and Chase and Preslie some lounge pants. I must say I'm a little impressed. My new task is to take the girls old jeans and make them into capri's with some cute ruffles on the bottom. I'm super excited about these. I'm going to be making my girls some cute dresses for spring/summer and making some dresses for my niece. I am having so much fun. And you know what, I think Cody is really impressed as well. Because well, he gets new skull caps out of the deal.
I'll post some pictures when I get things done.
