Her Lessons are Still with Me

Let me set the scene - my studio 

A sewing project

Me in abject terror

Cotton is supposed to tear straight right.  Well that didn’t happen!!!!   

It’s very inconvenient of my Mother to be in the afterlife.  She was the seamstress and I was the painter when it came to projects.  But I did pick up something peculiarly brilliant from her.  Whenever she was faced with learning something new , she would find a kid version to teach herself.  She didn’t learn to cook until I was in high school.  Somewhere she found a kids version of the Betty Crocker cookbook and off she went with great success.

Well I need to sew a few little things for my assemblage projects.  It finally occurred to me - is there a kids sewing machine?  Why yes and thanks to Etsy, look what I have!

Batteries installed in the itty bitty foot pedal and off I went!  Even though she’s not here to fix my problems, she actually did anyway.  :)
