Sew Super Sweet: A Sweet Handmade Suprise

Sewing is a lot like life...sure, there are patterns for just about everything, but in order to love what you do, or love what you make, you have to change the pattern to make it your own regardless if the change is a fraction of an inch or the length of a yard. And more often that not, those choices you make to change the pattern do not work out exactly the way you hope. It can be frustrating and challenging, and sometimes you have have to rip it all apart at the seams and start completely over. Which requires patience. A lot of patience. But in doing so, you create something that is far more rewarding, and far more beautiful, then what you started with.

A Sweet Handmade Suprise

I love surprises! Especially when surprises are actual surprises....do you know what I mean? My stepmother knitted these super cute KU beanies for the boys and they arrived in the mail yesterday.

SURPRISE!

A typical 4 yeard old, Z didn't want to wear his at first....that is, of course, until I put E's on his sweet little noggin and then Z was quick to follow suit! Little brother couldn't be the only one getting gushes from Mom and Dad. :)
