This is the lastest project that Maria has done for her Mommy! She was shocked when I took out a platter to make the curve for the bag! LOL Hope you enjoy the pictures that I have of her.
Just for those who don't know... Maria is my youngest granddaughter, who just turned 5 this month & she started sewing last summer. Her first project was a felt pincushion that I cut up into squares that she sewed together. It was a real challenge for her & she worked on it for 2 hours... so intense. She then took a permant marker & drew on it for me. I just wanted to make sure she would take interest; so Nana gave her some really hard to sew fabric! I know.. I was mean... LOL This is my prize possession that she first made with me sitting behind her all the way!
I posted a thread of her making a pen/pencil bag that she made for her mommy as well.
Maria has made pillow cases for herself & twin brother, Vinnnie & has made a few easier pin cushions out of blocks. I am so 'proud' that one of my 4 granddaughters has taken up my passion.
