Sewin'

My mother taught herself to sew when I was a baby; which was about a million years ago.  She learned out of necessity but learned to love it and even for a time earned money from it.  She sewed everything.  So, in the natural progression of things I too sew.  Not as much as days gone by.  So when Gran Number Two asked me to make her a dress for her baptism.  Well, you can't say no to that.  So I didn't.

This is the journey of the dress

What a sweet, sweet dress. Perfect for a special baptism day. I love it. I so wish I had my grandmother's sewing genes but I avoid any project that has to go on a "journey." A couple hours max for me, and then I lose my patience. Guess I should work on that patience problem first before I go on wishing I had your kind of skills!
