However, here is one of the things we have been busy doing...The machine had been threaded for weeks (thanks to the support of the in-laws - who really just sat there while I figured it out, but just having a posse sitting there gave me courage). I got up my nerve to wind the bobbin. I found this pattern for a really easy skirt months ago and printed it out. I finally just swallowed hard and gave it a try - and here is the outcome:
Granted, it is a little big and if you look really close a lot of the stitching is crooked, but I did it. The fabric is one of Mike's old shirts and the ribbon came on one of the gifts I got for Olivia when she was born (anyone recognize it?). She wore it all day - christening it with pizza sauce and marker. I couldn't be happier - or more pumped to start the next one!

Good job on the skirt. I think i recognize Mike's shirt. Looks like you did not take after your mom, thank goodness. Very creative. mom
That is one nasty baby doll. Maybe mommy could make her a matching dress.
