Passing it down!

I had my granddaughter here with me and she asked me for a coloring book and colors. I told her, "You limit your Creativity when you use a coloring book and colors!" I gave her a BLANK sketch pad and a pencil, "Now you have a Blank Canvas, see what comes to your mind!" I am Absolutely Amazed at 11 years old what this child put down on paper. She sketched some AWESOME DESIGNS!!! I have a binder in which I keep her designs in, this way she can look back on what she has designed and maybe one day I will help her to make the outfit. We picked out some crazy fabric to make her an apron. Not those boring aprons that the Home Ec. teachers make you make in Jr. High and High School. By the time Phoebe gets into Home Ec. the teacher will definetely be impressed and wonder where she is getting her lessons from. Then she can proudly say, "My Me-Me put a needle and thread into my hands at the young age of 8 years old." You see I first put a needle and thread into her hands at 8 years old beginning with the plastic needle, crochet thread and gave her a piece of plastic canvas to help her learn without the danger of possibly being stuck with a metal needle.
I am so anxious for my sewing room to be finished for her and I to get in there to just play all day long!!! And when I say PLAY, this means sewing all day long. This is my LOVE, my PASSION! It's what GOD gave me and I am so excited to share it with people, especially Phoebe!!!!!
I LOVE YOU MY BABY GIRL!!!!
