Starting Small

I have always enjoyed sewing things for my girls. Halloween costumes, dress up clothes, dresses, you name it, I made it! They are now teenagers and sewing for them has challenges. The most significant being that forever 21 has just what they are looking for and often for less than it would cost me to make! Sewing for babies is so easy, they never give you any push back and everything is really small, which means it is easy to make. So, I decided as I embark on my year of creativity, I had better start small. A trip to the fabric store and some scouring of pattern books and I walk out with this pattern of vintage booties for babies....


And, a couple hours later I had successfully made a super cute pair of booties!
