Sewing

One of the very nice things of having Number Two at home was all of the creative sewing I did, mending many of her favorite clothes. I feel so close to Mamae when I sew, her practical hints and joy in my mind as as the machine hums. I made the shirt for Number Two following a pattern of one she brought from Brazil, using material Husband brought from Thailand last semester. The purse I made for Number Five out of a skirt she inherited from her big sister!
