To Sew or Not to Sew

While I was in New Mexico not only did I get new curtains, I also learned how to sew. My good friend Kelly and her mom Linda took a day out of their busy schedules to teach me the ropes of using a sewing machine. With so many babies on the way (11 and counting) in my wider circle of friends I wanted to be able to make these special mothers something personal, cute and straight from the heart. And although I did teach myself to knit while I was sick in bed for four days, I thought perhaps sewing would be a more effective (and hopefully faster) way of making baby things. Check out the blanket and burp clothes they helped me create. Thank you ladies!

Hopefully I can figure out how to make the ancient machine I have in the basement work like Linda's much newer and lighter model.

Wish me luck!
