Shayla's First Sewing Experience


Here is a photo of the result of Shayla's first sewing experience. Shayla and I made a purse together a few weeks ago, with Shayla doing most of the work including operating the sewing machine. All I did was set her up, show her how to pin the pieces together and give a bit of help guiding the fabric through the machine. She also attached the Ribbon shoulder strap. The sparkly shapes are stickers which she added when the sewing was done. Well done Shayla! I'm very proud of you!!

Hey, I tried to leave a comment before, but I don't know what happened... I think I said:

Hey Shayla,

Your purse looks awesome! Congratulations on mastering the sewing machine. I bet Karen is a good teacher.
