Hand prints would be great. Be sure to guide them so your hard work doesn't get ruined.

I sewed the front and back of the dress together while trying to put in the zipper!<br /><br />But years later, I taught myself to sew. You're right: those patterns seem to be written in a foreign language. <br /><br />That tee-pee looks like fun!

And it does look perfect to me, just from your pictures. It is adorable. I could never have even been able to do it! My mom was a big sewer, too. She even made purses from her own pattern, and fancy collars, and her own sundresses. I just get too frustrated and have to rip things out. In high school home ec we had to make a simple sleeveless shift. I made big holes all up and down the sides from having to rip out the seams so much. NOT my mother's daughter! I love the purse, it looks perfect!!! And the teepee! You really got your money's worth out of these lessons, especially if you can finally read patterns, too! YES to the handprints, then show us again!!Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5356235511941477035.post-53076243085190522002011-07-21T13:12:01.463-04:002011-07-21T13:12:01.463-04:00Great job!
