Look Mom! I did it!
My mother is very talented at sewing. She tried many times to teach me how to sew. I started many skirts and dresses only to get impatient and frustrated and happily let Mom take over. She would still try to make me complete the project, but it was probably like pulling teeth. It would always end up that I would sit there and pout while Mom read each instruction and told me what to do next. I was basically a robot. When the project was completed Mom would try to congratulate me on making whatever it was, but I knew better--Mom really was the one who made it. Mom tried her best, but I just had a sour attitude about sewing. It took too much patience. This attitude lasted until I had Kilynn. Having a little girl has given me desires that I never really had before to do more crafty things. I am giving sewing a try now and it has been fun. Here are some pictures of her Easter dress.

That dress is darling!! Way to go! It is WAY more fun to sew for your kids than for yourself, I think. I was the same way growing up, and finally really learned to sew on my own when I made Kami a dress when she was three.
It's beautiful! I agree with Amy - I didn't like to sew until Maddie was about 2 and I made her a dress. You did a great job!
You did awesome!! Isn't it fun! Dresses are so much fun because the girls love to twirl!!
So...I'm waiting patiently. Where's the picture of your new haircut? :)
