One of Ella’s favorite birthday gifts was a tiny Singer sewing machine from K & Cory. We have all been excited just thinking about it and we knew that Ella would love it. She let out a loud squeal and couldn’t wait to show Garan. It’s been busy around here since the party and our lack of batteries didn’t help. Finally, this past Sunday afternoon, we unboxed the singer and learned to sew. Don’t laugh when I tell you this machine was harder to figure out that mine was!
With a little direction, she was sewing in now time and actually proved to be quite good. She carefully lifted and lowered the presser foot, gently pressed the pedal and learned how to relieve the tension on the thread before removing her fabric. I have a pretty little blue square full of white stitches sitting in a frame in our living room. Ella picked the perfect spot and I love looking at it every time I walk through.
