A twofer today! #1 – Mack’s fashion sewing class had a mini-fashion show yesterday. Each student was supposed to make one outfit for a child and then use that child as the model in the fashion show. Because Mack’s teacher has been so impressed with Mack’s talent, she gave her the added challenge of making the outfit without a pattern–just make the whole thing up. Mack was up to the challenge and created this darling princess dress:
Mack’s teacher also asked her to have models for the two costumes she made in the fall:
As a mom, it was very satisfying sitting back and listening to others praise my daughter on her accomplishments in this class.
#2 – Yawlin was in a silly mood yesterday as he walked up to my crossing after school. He was munching on mini-marshmallows left-over from his lunch. He tried sticking a marshmallow on my hand-held stop sign, but I kept dodging him. He decided to do one better and stick the ‘mallow on the stop sign on the corner.
Made me chuckle. 🙂
And, yes, the ‘mallow was still there this morning.

Those outfits are absolutely adorable!
You must be so proud
Don’t you love it when they’re silly and want to play?

Wow — those outfits are amazing! She is really very talented! I can’t sew at all and so I am always in awe when I see people make things like that!
