...watch out world!...

Melissa is sewing!
She asked me to help her make a baby shower gift for a friend - so we went to work this evening on a changing pad, receiving blanket, and burp cloths. She wanted to take a turn "pushing it through" as she said. I got her started on the changing pad and then she took over. She did a great job!
I told her she should've taken my old sewing machine when I offered it!



She looks like she's been doing it for a while now!





Here's part of the gift we completed. The changing pad is on left and the receiving blanket on the right.



Apparently, she got the sewing itch because then she wanted to sew pillow cases to go on her new guest bed. They turned out very cute too!


In other fun news today - I got a second monitor at work! YAY! I'm so excited!!
I was super duper DUPER jealous when Jennifer got one a few months ago....and wha la! I have my own now! Pretty exciting!!
