With all the cooks in the kitchen she should learn quite a few little lessons.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what all I should show her on the sewing part? Besides the apron? I'm not sure if she has ever sewn anything before..I know she dont have a machine. I have 4 so she can use on anytime she wants to.
She can learn gathering as part of the apron. Also hemming, and adding a pocket.
Add in a quilt square pillow, and she should be good. LOL.
