Little Apron for Little Norah


There is something hysterically cute about this picture to me--Norah wearing my first completed sewing project, the tiniest of aprons. Sometimes it is so hard to believe that a person so small can be so big in my life, in all of the big ways that one can imagine. Big loving, big terrorizing, big everything....

I have been meaning to post about this for a while because it has been finished for a few months and I have been off to a couple other projects (will post about those after the holidays) on my sewing machine. Sewing is... different from knitting. It's not that I don't like it; I do. It's just that I have to hone a skill set that I do not already have--attention to detail seems to me so far to be paramount to a successful sewing project. I knitting, I can fudge it; rather than ripping out a project, I can fib my way through it (sometimes poorly, but still). In sewing, well not so much. Nonetheless, I did make some mistakes on this little apron and my small person love sit just the same.
