I love watching some of the process that you and Big Sis went through to produce her pretty dress.

I was sewing clothes at 11, but not a dress like that (a relatively simple tiered skirt comes to mind). I was kind of left to get on with it as my Mum didn't like the machine very much but had lots of hand sewing skills etc. to pass on. All the stuff I learned from her is ingrained. Also some off the stuff I did then was pretty fearless compared to my more cautious grown up self, who can be frightened to cut into fabric. To be able to use an over locker and make such a great dress at your daughter's age is pretty amazing really. The dress is so pretty and it's not a basic one either. She has done so very well. As have you, for supporting and enabling her.<br /><br />As an aside, you deserve a medal for unscrambling the nightmare pattern pieces!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5225566259581748208.post-26440928167676475572016-02-17T18:54:57.367+00:002016-02-17T18:54:57.367+00:00How great that she is sewing things at such a youn...How great that she is sewing things at such a young age.
