a first time sewing

That's it! I made it... I sew my 1st clothing. I made a pj for my DS with trucks and tractors. Ok, it's far from perfect... the stop sign are upside down, the top is a bit to small and the sleeves... well let's just say that they are attach to the rest and it's not easy sewing a size 3! But the pant are #1 and my son, the happiest kids on earth!

Here's a picture


Now, I need to make one for DD... and DH but it a secrets, I will give it to him the night before x-mas so he as something to wear on x-mas morning...

Great job on the pjs!! They are really cute and your son looks so happy. Perfection is not that important - especially to a boy who wears size 3! I'm sure they are just perfect to him.

You did a nice job! Sewing clothes isn't easy, so you should be very proud of your accomplishment. Your DS looks very excited!

You should be proud of yourself, sewing is hard. Your DS sure looks happy with the result, and that is what counts.
