Over the summer, Fifi sewed her first skirt. Right before her birthday back in June, to be exact. Here, she excitedly found the pieces that her chosen pattern called for...
she cut them...
she ironed them--I hope she didn't forget to empty the iron of any water still in the reservoir!...
she found her reflection in the shiny bottom, because she was, after all, not quite 13...
she pinned--with only the occasional "ouch!"...
she played with the cat...
she checked her work...
modeled her fabulous new creation and then went to bed too late.
And then, she started doing this kind of stuff. Because she is 13 and the sky is the limit!

Sewing is the thing I've determined to teach my older girls in 2009. I need to remember to photograph the process!
That skirt is cute!
I so badly want a sewing machine... :)
That skirt is seriously cute. I want one. After I lose 500 pounds when the baby is born it would look really good on me.
Beautiful! And what a great, happy color.
Cute skirt. Enjoying reading your blog for the first time today. I think I could do this all day.
