the Sewists

Big changes at our house this fall. H & A are schooling online. I decided to embellish their "curriculum" with life-skills...

...whip stitch...

"Mom, why is the thread too long?"

...form the knot...

...pull it taut...

...and display...

And they lived happily ever after. 
The End

B I G F O O T

When you marry a tall man, you should expect certain things in life...  But who could anticipate the inability to find shoes to fit your children? But the absolutely most devastating difficulty is obtaining a sportpac large enough for my 16 year-old's size 16 cleats!

So, I made him one.

It's in school colors & has his #70.

I put in loops for keys and pockets for wallet & phone.

The outer pocket is just a little too small for his playbook. (I'm sure he'll find something to stash in there...)
