I Did It!

Now, those who know me know that I am a self professed sewing dummy.  I try to avoid the whole ordeal.  But when I saw this project I just had to try it.  I thought to myself that it looks easy enough for even me to do. 

I was right.

 

My first applique.  I am quite proud of it.  It only took me an hour - not quite the 20 minutes it was supposed to take, but not too bad for a non-sewer.  I gave it away as a gift at a party that Lilly went to on Saturday.  What little girl wouldn't want this rainbow T?  And the best part is that I was able to maintain my Scrooge like status and boycott the buying of any more toys - even for other people's children! 

Now I have a million ideas: birthday shirts, Easter outfits, gifts, etc.  I am on a roll!
