Cuties yesterday morning I had 3 ladies from my Sunday School class come over, so we could cut out girls dresses and boys shorts for the missions.

In a little less than 2 hours (and Debbie missed about half as she came late) we had 9 dresses cut out and 29 shorts!
They brought whatever they wanted to take home, to sew and left two shorts with me, for another member to sew. One of the members Brenda used to own a business sewing children's clothing so she provided our size labels. We just cut off or sew the name of her business into the seams. Anyway, Brenda showed me how to sew the elastic in the shorts, with my serger. I was always too scared to try, because your elastic has to be correct for the size. I turned it wrong side out so you could see. I still have a little trouble starting out so excuse any sewing imperfection please. Only thing is, my wrist is hurting again from stretching the elastic as I serged and sewed .
They left 4 shorts for me to sew and 7 dresses, as no one wanted to cut out (so I did) or sew the blue/white/black fabric. The fabric feels like those Hawaiian shirts for men, you know what I mean?
Brenda also partially made Gus a overall/romper that buttons at the shoulder, like they used to make in her shop. I say partially because she left me to finish so I could embroider something before enclosing the bottom with snaps,etc. It is fulled lined and I will show you when Ashley decides what she wants me to embroider and I finish it.
Anyway, hope you're not tired or bored with me. I just love to sew and share! Have a nice day!-Toogie
