Lessons...not book related

Recently, Jesse has been very interested in craft projects of varying types. She has crotched a pair of socks, made two duct tape pumpkins, worked on her drawing and a few other things I cannot think of right now. Anyway, after helping John sew the curtain for the Halloween decorations in the living room, she really wanted to sew a new apron for herself.

Her old apron still fit width wise; however, it was way too short. The initial plan was to add to her old apron. The old apron was a cream color with black butterflies. John and I both thought she should stay in the classic mode, to match the apron, but after fifteen minutes of her looking (and picking out fabrics) we decided she should probably just make a new one. She did finally pick a fabric and notions for a brand new apron.

The last two days she has been constantly asking if we could make the apron. Today was her lucky day (it rained all day). Now, she is in the kitchen wearing her brand new apron and making a cake with her sister...who is now asking for a new apron of her own. lol

Good job, Jesse! The apron looks great! I love the duct tape pumpkin, but I don't love those spiders. Scary-lol!

Courtney, you should have saw the spiders yesterday when the wind was blowing. They looked like they were really crawling. ;)
