Winter White

by delicateadmin 11. January 2011 17:39

It's been "white" earlier this week. Had our first bit of snow here in Oklahoma. Not much, my kind of snow--The yards and trees look nice and wintery, but the streets are still easy to manuver. Got to get out the boots for walking the dog, scarf and mittens! But by tomorrow it will all be gone!

I'm doing some sewing for one of my customers. She has 2 granddaughters that she likes to smock for. I do some "ready to smock" garments. This project is the Collar Etc. "Original Toddler Smocked Apron" by Trudy Horne. It is a delightful pattern, A-line dress, buttons down the back, has a bit of smocking area in the center front below the Peter Pan collar. This project is in the medium pink pique, so it's going to be for Valentines! I think she is also going to do "double duty" with this one because she is stitching a birthday cupcake in the pleated area! Should be cute, hope she sends some pictures of the girls in their dresses!

About the author

     Sewing has always been a part of my life. From the age of 10 I was sewing for my Barbie doll! In high school and college I enjoyed making clothes for myself. It wasn't until I had my first daughter that I was introduced to English Smocking. Then about 4 years later to Heirloom Sewing. It has been a love of classic children's clothing ever since.

     I am a former Home Economics teacher, so teaching sewing was part of my job. I enjoy helping others learn to smock, take ahold of mastering heirloom sewing by machine and working on the intricacies of fine hand embroidery. Whether it is a private lesson or with a small group, I am comfortable with teaching many aspects of the needle arts.

     My home based business began in the mid-1990s in my laundry/sewing room. Today I have a comfortable, well lit sewing studio and shop area as well as a competitve website business.  I continue to strive to have quality merchandise for the home sewer interested in English Smocking and Heirloom Sewing.

     Best Wishes & Happy Stitching!    Sylvia
