Latest projects

My first sewing project was a satin and down pillow. Overall, I did okay, with three of the four sides looking perfect, but the satin fabric bested me on the fourth side. Didn't help much that I only had black thread so black on white was very visible anyway. However, since it was a learning process and my kids couldn't care any less about aesthetic appearance I received high praise and now the pillow is proudly owned by my kids toy giraffe, along with a much better finished blanket made of cotton fabric. I don't know how many projects I'll be able to keep for myself but I'm keeping my hopes up. Here's a picture!

I'm also working propagating succulent plants I was given by my mom. They are living in my bathroom since it's still too cold for being outside. In the next few months i plan on separating these plants and continuing until I have enough to make my own garden.

There are so many things we as mother's can do both on our own and with our kids. I have so many ideas myself.
More to come, but adieu for now!
