My sister-in-law came up a few weeks ago so that we could sew skirts together. Off we went to the material store with 6 kids in toe (crazy!?). Julianne found some cute material with a pattern to match. I had a very specific look in mind, which I could not find. When at last I found a dress pattern that I liked it was, of course, out of stock. My children found a very cute pattern for pillows though and we decided that it would be a very fun idea to make each child a pillow to go on their school chair. They turned out so very cute and the kids are thrilled with them!
Oh, and later on as I was cleaning out my old patterns and getting rid of those ones that I wouldn't ever use again, guess what I found? The exact kind of pattern that I had hunted for in the store, a pattern that I probably got 15 years ago and forgot I even had. It seems so strange to be able to say that and not be referring to a time when I was a small child. When did that happen??
