My daughters first time...and only five years old

Well this is just too exciting - Ruth, with her own Singer sewing machine - first time sewing.
Isn't gingham just wonderful for the first timer - just follow the lines.

Ruth has made a very simple bag out of a tea towel - and so I'll enter her in Jenny's tea towel challenge. This is a bag for her insect capturing equipment, simple design for a five year old. All I had to do was monitor the sewing and add the pins. She loved the pins so I put in lots so she could remove them.

The singer sewing machine was an Ebay purchase by Bruce - designed for children. All she had to do was turn the wheel and it sews - fantastic, and with more experience we will add batteries and she can turn it on and off to sew.
I'm such a proud mum. - Happy Sewing everyone, Jennifer
