Like Mother Like Daughter, Part Deux

As many of you may know, I love to sew. Chris and his parents purchased a Singer sewing machine as my Christmas gift two years ago and I have been putting it to good use. It's easy to do when all of your friends are having babies.

Because of this interest I spend a great deal of time in Asheville's amazing fabric shops. That means Ella Brooks does, too. She watches me patiently (please read the previous statement in a sarcastic tone) as I carry around bolts of cloth pairing patterns and colors. I could spend hours shopping for fabrics, but the little dictator does not really permit that.

Recently I noticed I did not hear the little presh-head playing. This is what I found:













She'd found the fabric scrap stash and decided to play the fabric shopping game. I watched her sort and investigate textures. I watched her mix and match and then, eventually, decide on the fabrics she loved.

I am so proud.
