Sewing with #3

While the oldest two were away at 4-H camp this summer, #3 and I had a
"just me and you" sewing day.

First up ... a skirt.

 
Look, Mom!  I used pins! 
Mom said to me, on more than one occasion, that she didn't know how any of my sewing projects ever turned out because I NEVER use pins.  With kids...you HAVE to use pins...UGH!

 
The hem IS even.  She's just sticking her booty out for comic relief.


Then on to the pennant banner for the girls' bedroom.
 
She cut out the triangles.
 
 
I PINNED them onto the bias tape... right side down.
 
#3 stitched them together with a zig-zag stitch.
 



 
I finished the other one because attention deficit set in and she had TV to watch before the other two got home.

This is a super simple project even if you don't sew...use fabric glue or heat-n-bond.
