Winnie & Jo's Sewing projects


Winnie (Rachel B.) stayed over last night and in desperation to find something to do we decided to learn how to sew... I already kinda knew, but we'd never done pillows before...and now we know!!!

I had a bag full of clothes to give away so instead of giving them away we ripped them up and made quilted pillows with them. These were some of the clothes.

Making quilted pillows is our new fav thing right now, so for any birthdays coming up... you know what you're getting! :)


We had spasms of random laughter since it was like 1:30 in the morning... too late for us















I did most of the actual sewing part
















Winnie sat there and cut...and cut... and cut.




















Our finished products... not stuffed yet though!

all right where was your mudder during all this...? just kidding. it looks like you all did a great job so I will be expecting one for say uh.... uncle joey's birthday
(7/29) of course i will have to steal it away when he's not looking. (BTW - I gave Bo his name ((short for Boregard per Hannah)) his little personality is growing day by day and he's a real cutie and loves to lick faces.)

I'm making Mom one right now and I've kinda run out of fabric... and clothes :)
btw... Mom is getting rid of poor Elsie- Marie :( she's the only one who doesn't like her and I really want to keep her. Oh well...

Rach!! You little booger! :) I really DID NOT say the B-word... ha ha... ;)

But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
