Sewing Project

This is Victoria's sewing project. 

She came to me with the fabric and said that she wanted to stitch a christmas tree to hang on her door.

I drew out the pattern on a piece of paper and showed her once how to work the cross stitch.  She picked it up quickly and was done lickety split.

I did have to fix a couple knots on the back.

She learned that the back is just as important as the front.

I always hated that lesson.

She was pretty proud of herself and couldn't wait to show her Dad. 

I am proud of her too.  She really stuck with it and finished the whole idea.

I also loved that she found everything she needed in a few plastic boxes.
