~Day 227: Learning to Sew

For a long time, BrookLynn has been making her own doll or stuffed animal clothes with material and... tape.  I told her she needed to learn how to make clothes with a needle and thread.  Am I the ideal candidate to teach her?  Nope.  But I think I know enough to get her by.

I started her on plastic canvas and yarn, because of the larger size holes.  I thought she should learn to use a needle first.  Of course Cailee wanted to learn.  So I have both girls learning to use a needle while they stitch letters of the alphabet.  It's fun to watch them learn something new, and to see their concentration.
