Katie Scarlett's Mommy Donating Member | Well I have new found respect for you seamstresses.... Tee hee! Well I dove in and did it this afternoon. Katie Scarlett was napping so I decided to hem the pajamas I told y'all about a couple of weeks ago. I am not a seamstress to say the least. I do have a sewing machine but I sew on paper with my scrapbooking. Well today I got frustrated trying to hem by hand so I marched into my scrappy studio and fired up the machine. I now have a new found respect for all of you ladies who sew! Sewing on fabric is hard! LOL! It is so wobbly! I'm sure that is a real technical term. Ha ha! You guys would get a big laugh when you saw my stitching. It's not the straightest, but I did get the job done. But even if it is less than perfect, I am proud of myself for conquering it. Should I post pix tonite when I put her a pair of 'em? Tee hee! You can't laugh though!

Katie Scarlett's Mommy Donating Member | I adore the dresses you make for Pita! Question for you...do you take special requests? I have found some fabric online (Gone With the Wind) that would make the perfect dress for KS, but I am afraid to do it myself. Just wondering.

My Dad's sisters could all sew just about anything, clothes, drapes, slipcovers, they quilt, etc. I'm like you-I can't sew a button on straight! The sewing gene must have skipped me! | |

and Bear too! ♥ Donating Member | It skipped me too! I have a machine that I have never even used. I just don't have the patience. I wish I did. I can however do some woodwork, paint, and love to decorate!
