I have a grandson and another on the way...I don't know about sewing on a machine--I'll give it a shot when he's a little older. At 3, he does like to sew pony beads and the occasional jingle bell with yarn onto plastic canvas. So much fun.<br />marylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16422697002292248350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-13194662881297304362014-06-16T16:27:55.018-07:002014-06-16T16:27:55.018-07:00WOW Sophia is what just 7?

I remember being so confused about the tops of skirts and how to get them to fit my dolls. Then I was confused about darts. Who knew that darts pretty much solved the skirt fitting issue? Took classes starting in Junior high and never looked back... prom dresses, coats and eveything for school. Such fun times!<br />Ruth in Oxnard CAHOA Mgr Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07949018880623140075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-44879925298360418022014-06-15T13:54:23.310-07:002014-06-15T13:54:23.310-07:00Oh Terry, your story warmed my heart and took me b...Oh Terry, your story warmed my heart and took me back 50+ years.
