Sew, Sew, Sew...

is something I DO NOT do! Scrapbook, yes. Give me some pictures, some paper and a couple of punches and I can come up with something pretty quickly! Give me a needle and thread, and you can forget it. I think it has something to do with the fact that in seventh grade, I sewed my finger in home ec class, with a sewing machine. All the way through my little pinky! Never touched one of those machines again! So when my neighbor Chance showed up to a birthday party with her daughter in the cutest pumpkin shirt and she claimed it was so easy, I thought yeah, right. I will be heading to Old Navy to pick up some already done shirts. Then my other neighbor Lyndi said that she was going to try it and she had the material....hmmmm......two of my girls already had black long-sleeved shirts.....next thing I know, I am at Lyndi's making pumpkin shirts for my girls. I cannot take any credit for the sewing. I left that to Lyndi (thanks, friend!). I did however, cut and used some fabric glue and even used a needle and thread to sew on some green ribbon. And here they are...so cute! Thanks Chance for the idea!
