ten garlands in ten days: day nine

not recommended for outdoor use...that whole rain thing can be a buzzkill. also, not easy for the kidlets to do, give them some froot loops instead. also not pictured but very important is the oiling of the needle. keep it oiled to keep it from getting too sticky. oh, and a thimble would be useful as well.

ten garlands in ten days: day seven

okay, so i only slightly cheated on this one. take the punched out hearts from yesterday's garland and feed them into your happy sewing machine until you run out of hearts. they may seem small but if you gently place them under the foot they'll automatically feed right into the line of fire! happy garland making!

it's been a long time
