O.K. Call me a softy. I saw this toy sewing machine and had to get it for P. It would have been silly to get it for myself so I say that it is for her. We gave it to her last night and she said she did not want to go to bed; she wanted to sew. The poor dear. I know just how she feels.
She has a real sewing machine; one that I think will be safe for her to use. It is hand crank powered.
This morning she got right to work.
She made a pillow with fluffy stuff inside and a smaller "bean" bag filled with rice.
Later, I found the pillow on her bed in her room, right where her head would be.
She has plans for more projects. She wants to sew a hat, a sweater, and she says her doll needs and apron that can tie in the back. I may not have a problem with scraps building up any more. I noticed
that P knew just were to go to get the squares she used to make her
pillows.
The Singer Sewhandy sews with a chain stitch. I think I may be trying it out myself. We can try it with different threads, or sew from the back so the chains end up on the front, or maybe even try some quilting on a doll quilt with it. Oh, the possibilities.
