I’ve been sewing a bit lately. P’s birthday party is coming up. I’m making a few things for our guests. For safety reasons, I’m always a bit nervous of starting projects involving the sewing machine when she’s around. Because she’s been playing on her own so well lately I thought I’d give it a try. Of course as soon as the fabrics and machine came out she wanted to be a part of it all. To my surprise she participated right along with me.
I was tracing letters on fabric. She wanted to do the same so I cut a piece of fabric and gave her a letter to trace. She went at it for almost an hour. I could watch P forever when she is engaged in a project. She gets serious, focused and her attention to detail is very impressive for her age. She handles things quite easily. Her dexterity has always amazed me.
I think I found a sewing partner.
