  2. Thank you for featuring our sewing project! It was a lot of fun for my daughter to make the blanket. Now I have a few more ideas, especially those cute bookmarks!

    Skills like these are not easy to teach, but they sure are beneficial. Thanks for including life skills at ABC and 123!

  5. I would like to incorporate more sewing into our homeschool day. So much to learn and do and so little time! We do have a big sewing project planned in the upcoming months. I really like the sewing cards! Thanks, they will make a nice warm up exercise.

    Last year we sewed handmade Valentine Cards. They turned out so cute and special for friends and family.
