Assembly finished!

This afternoon she finished putting the chemise together.  I did the pinning, but she did all the sewing - including setting the sleeves

For the record

That is one seriously disgusting smile. I can feel my blood sugar spiking through the internet...

Shame you didn't have a cute or talented daughter!

Isn't it though? Got to be recessive genes...

Sewing is something I always wanted to like (since I love making things and always want to customize everything I own so it suits me exactly) but I just can't. I hate cutting and pinning the pattern. The sewing part is okay, but the rest...augh, so tedious. Also...if I make clothes, even choosing the proper size according to the pattern...everything I've ever made has wound up being about three sizes too big for me. I'm not built right. I have to size to my chest since it's way bigger than my hips. Maybe that's the problem, I don't know, but clothes I make for myself are always big enough to swim in. Except the chest, which usually does fit fine. And I haven't the talent to alter the dimensions to fit my apparently unnatural figure (I guess women aren't allowed to be very top-heavy?) and still have it look right

I have... mixed feelings about sewing. I like making "stuff." I love piecing quilt tops - picking out the colors and patterns, and seeing it all come together. Assembling it afterwards? Boooorrrrring

Maybe Charlotte will learn sewing really well and, having learned so early, will be great at it and can take over for you. :)

One of my fondest hopes... :-)
