Default Sewing Emergency Project:
On Wed I got a frantic call from my friend. Her daughter is in a play that starts today (Friday) and the school just told her on Wed she needs a costume!!!! What????? So she called me for help and we got 2 thrift store shirts and combined them and I made a quilted apron out of stash fabric. I worked on it all day yesterday while my 4 yr old watched TV (bless his heart) Oh and my button hole foot BROKE! So I had to do all the button holes freehand with a zig zag!!!! So I will be combing the internet for a new buttonhole foot today! but here is what we came up with. What do you think?
