We threw together a little Valentines Day party for Lily. I made pizza dough and the girls shaped and topped their own pizzas. Then they decorated cupcakes. Last we made little heart shaped hand warmers. I got the hand warmer idea from my friend Trenna who gives a darling tutorial here. We did use the machine instead of sewing by hand.
What a sweet bunch of girls! They were very patient with my little boys who wanted to participate in everything. And they are the perfect age for doing a craft like this. They were all able to do most of the sewing. I think the whole shin dig cost me less than $15 and required very little preparation. The cleanup is, of course, a different matter. :-)
P.S. The Jolly Jabber posted an interview with me today. They asked the craziest questions. Also, tomorrow I'm the feature designer on Kathy Miller's blog. I'll get the applique template mentioned there on my blog by Monday.
I read the post on Jolly Jabber. The print lampshade caught my eye. I have the perfect shade for such a transformation. Can you tell me how to attach the fabric?
