Like mother like daughter.......



Love seeing Avery using her new sewing machine
and being like her mommy ; )





AND, speaking of sewing.... here I made a hooded towel for Avery.
I used white terry cloth and Cotton fabric that Avery picked out and used a
towel that she already had as my pattern.





I wish the hood was bigger,


but...


as you can see she likes it anyway.
