"You're like my own little housewife..." That's what Blain told me when he came home last night and saw me sewing away! I learned how to make curtains from my Bubba yesterday and I had so much fun doing so!
My Bubba and Granddad were here just before 10 am. While GD and Madison went for a walk and out to the park; Emily, Bubba and I went over to Wal-Mart and got the fabric and curtain rods (the rods we got were $1.50 each...what a deal!).
The next 3 hours were filled with fabric, thread, ironing and the sound of the sewing machine just going and going and going. The whole process was much easier than I thought and Bubba was a great teacher! She walked me through Madison's curtains and after they left, I made Emily's. They look great in the rooms and I am filled with such pride and accomplishment for not only finishing something, but for making them myself!
Ahh, what a day!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF5x_XOAl3j6WXSzW0oVU7xn2FsXVtpDUkOdbj7G4gciNWBkmsWlGq73WgVTRkNtsLK-D8x1spcDB7JzZk3151-14i0xq6Yk-8Bb8qz9xIoV6MJddORWdO-GdNhOj896s7ku6vDkwTc22t/s320/cutains+004.jpg)
