SEW EASY a kid could do it


This month's ABC Toys & Crafts challenge has been CHANGED up a bit but our theme is
" SEWING "

We want to see "stitching" on your projects - Sewing Machines optional, Hand Stitching, Cross Stitching or even FAUX Stitching let's get creative


Moving back to the United States has been so rewarding by allowing me to take a more active part in the lives of my nieces - Alaina and MacKenzie. During a recent Fall Break from school, I was able to keep them for an entire week. One of the days we decided it would be a great idea to mail cards to their mom. Not only was I able to share with them all the fun tools available but it was the perfect opportunity to teach them how to thread a sewing machine and SEW!!!

Here are the girls hard at work creating their cards



ALAINA ((age 9))


MACKENZIE ((age 12))
