Christina has been working very hard most of the day sewing. She has been making pillow cases for our travel pillows and she is getting quite creative about it! She doesn't need my help much. This is the perfect project since all the seams are straight.
She enjoyed looking through the stash of fabric, seam binding and rickrack and choosing her combinations. She's especially proud of the pink polka dot with the double rickrack that she made for Bri.
This lacy one is for me.
So far she has finished 5 and she plans to make 5 more so that we can change the pillow cases to wash them. I suggested that since I think this is a good way for her to practice her sewing skills. Of my three girls, she has more patience and desire to sew than the other two, but they are slowly becoming interested. Anyway, I am quite happy with Christina's work!
She made the first pillow... but since then we found some REAL nice travel pillows at the Fabric store for 50% off. They are nice enough that I think I can sleep two months on one without blaming it for my migraines.
Nice
