39/365

Soooo, today I completed my very first sewing project!!!  I bought a sewing machine after Christmas, and I've never sewn before!!  I take that back, I think we had a few weeks of sewing in 7th grade home-ex class!!  Other than that, no sewing experience at all!!  Just something I wanted to try! :)  Anyway, I was super duper excited when I finally finished something all by myself, from start to finish!!  Isn't this cute????  It's a little flannel blanket for an American Girl Doll!  I thought it would be a perfect gift for my daughters friend, who's b-day we're celebrating tomorrow, in Chicago, at American Girl Place.....right???  WRONG!!!!  I took the blanket with me to pick the kids up from school, yes, I was that excited to show it to my daughter!!  When she got in the car, this is how to conversation went...
Me- LOOK CARSYN!!!!!!  I made a blanket for you to give Jaycie for her b-day!!!!!!!  :) :)  :)  :)
Carsyn-  Really mom?  A piece of fabric?  Can't we just get her a book?

Sigh......  I was even all fancy with the blanket stitch and everything!!!

So, we got Jaycie the book, and now Carsyns dolls have the "piece of fabric"!!!
