    This is my daughter and bff practicing sewing exercises from a wonderful book. Covers basic stitches, safety, the machine parts, etc.... They have been practicing on paper and truly love it. We will soon be getting to actual projects, and am enjoying the process.

    Both Sarah and Madyson

    How cute! And I noticed their shirts match the machines they are using. Color coordinating & sewing at a young age! Way to go :)
