I Don't Have it All...

...when it comes to sewing and the "art of". I told Chad I wanted to take sewing lessons sometime when I'm done with school and he said I didn't need them. I can make simple things (i.e. pillows, draw string skirts, table cloths/mats, etc,...), but I have no developed talent in sewing anything else. For my cousins wedding I wanted to sew Ryley some black pants since I was having a difficult time finding some this time of year and judging by the picture, you can probably see they didn't exactly fit!!!I didn't use a pattern because I don't know how and I thought I could just draw and sew them. The first pair of pants ended up being huge, (although it is hard to tell the scale in the photo, they were probably a 10/12) and so I decided to take the little fabric I had left and make some shorts. Well, they will probably fit Maisey's boy Cabbage Patch doll but we haven't had time to try them on yet.

I guess now Chad will let me take a class (or several) to develop this skill!
