Sewing Adventure



Last week I sewed again for the first time in a long time. Ayden (Pam's 3 yr old nephew) wanted a superman cape. Pam (wanting to be the good aunt) said that she would make one for him. Kim (being the good friend) agreed to do the sewing, esp. since I know that she can't sew to save her life. She bought the supplies and I sewed. The cape is cool. As soon as I can get a pic., I'll put it up. Anyway,
it took me a couple of days to get it all cut out. It went together quite quickly...and it looks good. It's red on the outside and blue satin on the inside. I found a cool superman T-shirt at target with a raised emblem on it. I put that on the back. I think the adults like it better than the kid does. I find that happened a lot when my kids were little too. They wanted stuff from me...I would take the time to sew it...and they would wear it once and then be done. The only thing that really had long term value...the Star Trek Uniforms I made as Halloween costumes one year. Live Long and Prosper
