I have found that many of the tasks around the house run so much smoother when I have a helper. I am not sure this qualifies as HELPERS?
Baby our Siamese cat was sure I needed help pulling the fabric through the sewing machine.
And now it has become a habit. He has his own bar stool (formerly my bar stool) to make sure that the sewing proceeds with his utmost scrutiny.
Not to be outdone, Tiger needed lots of attention and was feeling second fiddle. "Hey, I think I will squeeze up here on the side and beg for attention - forget the sewing help - a good head scratch is what I want!"
Not to change the subject, but do you know how you can tell your friends love to sew as much as you do? Well when you get into their car, you find something like this:
Yes needles can travel anywhere and should travel everywhere. Right Karen?
Here is a project that I finished up for Easter. This is for Amber who is 4 months old. I love this ruffle fabric. When Janae tried the outfits on her, she put the skirt on over the top of the pants and created a new outfit that looked like a whole one piece suit. She pulled the waistband up under her armpits and with the bloomers under it, it was darling.
Garden update:
Planted all the onions. Some were plants and some were sets. I have spinach about the size of a saucer and the peas are two inches tall. Broccoli, cabbage and lettuce plants all survived the last snow, hail, and massive rain storm. Yippeeeeeee

Now, who wants to come HELP me with housework?
