valentines

Just wanted to share how I ended up using our painted doilies for this years Valentines.

Inspired by these, I dug out my sewing machine.

I had never sewed anything other than a straight line before. Kind of scary, but the curve wasn't as tricky as I thought it would be. My circles aren't perfect, but that's ok. I also had Juliet on my lap for half of them ... not that I'm making excuses or anything ;)

Used a few left over wax paper hearts on the back.

The message on the front is the perfect holder for a picture.

Or two.

These were an easy project and Juliet enjoyed the sewing part more than I thought she would. Maybe we can learn to sew together ...
