This morning the granddaughters learned to use the sewing machine. They made totes from ballerina fabric. One has more blue with a blue lining and the other pinks with pink lining. We had to put a box under the sewing machine for the youngest. Her legs weren't long enough. They both completed their totes and were so proud of them. I had the fabric cut when they arrived. They did the rest. We used the new seam guide on my Janome. They learned to use the various functions on the machine. They called it the computer part (which I guess it is!)
They took their bags to the library this afternoon and we checked out some books for them to read. The library also had a presentation by Ballet Folklorico. They really enjoyed the performances which included dancing, singing, and musicians.
The girls also prepared their own lunches today. These are photos of their creations. We got a little carried away with the green food coloring for the seaweed noodles.
