My 19 year old daughter bought me some lovely, fragrant coffee beans!! She visited my 22 year old up in Mt. Holyoke, Ma., where my eldest is a student in Russian. Those girls make me such a proud Mom. Brewing coffee begins my week with a huge grin, a delightful Sunday morning it is.
My husband bought me the red sweatshirt in our first year of marriage. Time to chop, pin, and sew...

A nine (9) year old sweatshirt! |
|
- Remove the bottom hem
- Cut hem in half for two long pieces
- Fold hem half in half lengthwise, iron to make the fold neat & pin-able
- Slice up the middle (I sliced the back of the sweatshirt because it was cleaner than the front)
- Pin the hem half to the sliced 'cardigan' edge, one hem per side
- Sew away
|
|
Voila`! I did two rows of stitching on the machine for the hemmed centers; the bottom of the cardigan is "rough" - hey, it's a sweatshirt! |
