I Have a New Hobby!

That's right, I've taken up sewing.  I bought a little Brother machine with my birthday money and have been sewing up a storm since then.  I've made several pairs of pants for the girls like the ones seen below.  And the top that Elsie is wearing in this photo:

 And  this skirt, the "Katie" skirt from Children's Corner.  I've made several of these.  It's fully lined and has pockets on the sides.  I've also made a jumper for Elsie, and several aprons.  Next up, I'll be making a dress for Mary Grace out of the pattern that I used to make Elsie's top in the photo above.  I found the cutest red and black Eiffel tower fabric and some coordinating red and black polka dot fabric for the sleeves.  Then there is a bag that I'd like to make for myself and I'll be making Roman shades for the back doors at our house.  I just wish I had more time!
