It's Curtains for Cassie!

While my Mom and Dad were here, I managed to get curtains made for my 6 year old niece. Mom was so helpful...she unloaded the dishwasher every day, sometimes twice a day, folded laundry, read books, helped with meals (or suggested take out!) AND cut out ladybugs and flowers. Dad played with the kids, read books or played the harmonica (which seems to enthrall the kids).

Here are the curtains...(looks like I'm into ladybugs these days!) The ladybugs and flowers were a print pattern. We cut out the individual bugs and flowers, ironed on heat transfer stuff (you can tell I am a seamstress, right?), trimmed them all again (20 ladybugs, 24 flowers), heat transferred them onto the white fabric, then sewed around each ladybug and flower. Then I put the two fabrics together, folded over for the pink edge, and hemmed. Voila!

The best part about it? Cassie likes them!
