Tie one on

My little kitchen helpers wanted aprons. They each picked out the pattern that they wanted me to make. Brielle's is Butterick pattern 5474 and Alexandra's is a modified version of McCall's 5720. Let the cookie making begin.

I feel like a new man!

Charlie just had his spring hair cut. We took him to Petco for his grooming. The girls hardly knew him when we went to pick him up. He is still soft and cuddly even with his new do.

I made this hair bow today. First I used the sewing machine and made a gathering stitch down the side of the ribbon. Then I gathered the ribbon. Next I cut a 2 inch felt circle and hot glued the ribbon to the felt in a circle pattern. Last, I attached a hair clip. I think I will make some for my friends.
