My parents sent Sophie a dress that fits about 4 Sophies in width. This brought the dilemma of what to do with it, Sophie wanted to wear it since she saw it, but it was too big. So I kept telling her that I would make it smaller, somehow. So today, while Sophie "swam," I decided to honor my promise (anything to avoid studying...). I pulled out the needle/thread box that my mom put together for us, and had my go at it. The whole time I kept reminiscing about my childhood and when I used to hangout with my abue Maria and knit/sew with her. The more I kept going, the more I remembered and the better I kept sewing the dress. I enjoyed playing with needles and thread when I was a kid, but what I really enjoyed was spending time with my abue.
Good memories.
Oh yeah, even though I didn't spend time with my abuelita like that, I still always remember her (and my mom) whenever I see or hear about someone knitting or sewing :)
ReplyDeleteAwww, I never got to knit with her. :( But yeah, I remember she would always knit our clothes lol. :) How'd the dress come out?
ReplyDeleteYeah, the dress fits her well now :) And that's cool that you learned that with your grandma.
