child labor?

The girls are fascinated with my sewing studio. Every day, they come in and either pin something, ask to sew something or want to cut up something. Bella asked me for her own sewing machine since I am ALWAYS using mine (she says)...

Bella decided that she wanted me to make her some HI-5 style jeans (you know the show don't you? It is on Discovery Kids)...anyhow, they are her "hip hop" jeans. I really think they turned out cute. She was insistent that I make these for her, so she could wear them to school the next morning....It is usually a battle to get her to wear some of the things that I have made. I keep telling her that she has her own "personal" designer, just like Hannah Montana does....It doesn't fly with her, she thinks she is a much bigger star than that old Disney diva. LOL! (a good imagination is healthy)

One of the "helpers" usually pricks their own finger, so I tell them..."you aren't a good seamstress unless you prick your finger". Hey, I can make that rule, I stick myself all the time, once I even sewed over my own finger nail! I must be a DANG gooooooood designer for that one...haha-

Have a nice weekend Y'All!,
