Okay, not really today. I started this on Sunday morning, quit to focus on other things and picked it back up Monday morning and finished it by 11:00 am. I photographed it later on Monday while my darling Miss A was sleeping. So instead of cute child modeling her new hat, Kai Lan will have to do. It is just as well. I know I will have to fight the child to keep it on her head. It will get dirty from her throwing it on the ground. Good thing it is reversible. The yellow inside fabric is something I had left over from years ago. I'm not really in love with it but might as well use it and make room for more fabric in my ever growing stash.
The pattern came from the book, Making Children's Clothes by Emma Hardy. I like a lot of the projects in this book but some of the patterns need a bit of editing. But I'm not a beginning sewer so I can figure out what to do without having it layed out for me. I have made a couple of other projects from the book. I would share but one of the dresses I made two months ago is now too short for my child who grows like a weed so why bother?
Despite being a somewhat experienced sewer, I am taking on online sewing class. It is called Home Ec and it has lots of cute projects. Realistically, I am only going to gain a couple new techniques but it seems like a lot of fun and a way to practice sewing other than making clothes for my child. Registration is only open for a few more hours so check it out!!!
