Sewing

Sophie loves to sew. Unfortunately she was born to a mother who feels like sewing is a duty, a labor...not fun. While I am learning to like sewing, my accomplishments basically include successfully sewing in a straight line.

Anyway I hemmed some maternity pants and Sophie asked if she could have the scraps. I reluctantly said yes, thinking I was probably encouraging pack rat behaviors. However she pulled out her sewing kit and made up a very cute and fun crown.

She obviously gets her sewing skills from Aaron's side of the family.

    That is so awesome and adorable!!!! How funny she thought of something so creative on her own.

    P.S. in the second picture she is making a total Aaron face. hahaha.

    That really is soooo cute! If I let Beth loose with sewing supplies I'd probably see similar things... I try to keep her to just basic craft supplies for now - I figure, teaching Gabi to sew is one kid enough for now.
