{Ribbon Flowers}

This is just going to be a quick post, but I really wanted to post something!

Yesterday (Wednesday), Some people from Christmas Carol, (including my family) all dressed up to go to the local news station. We were filmed singing songs from the show to help promote it. (I will write a longer post about this later)

So on Tuesday, my mom and I were sewing up a storm, ironing, and getting our costumes ready. There were capes to be sewn, skirts to be made, and hats to be decorated. I am going to expound upon the latter. And, that, my friends, was a really smart-sounding way of saying, "I'm going to talk about decorating hats".

So on Tuesday morning, my mom and sisters went to the fabric store, while I stayed back to make Felt Wee Folk (♥). When they returned, my mom took out some red ribbon, green ribbon, and a little spray of fake white berries. "I want you to make me a flower for my hat" she said. And so I did.
You can see what happened next by looking at the following photos.

I was very pleased with the result!

My mom also made her beautiful plaid skirt in the above picture. She already owned the jacket. The shirt is just a white collared shirt with the collar tucked in so you couldn't see it, and a piece of lacy fabric was tucked in to look like some sort of frilly collar.

The Picture was taken on the sidewalk in front of our house. Aren't the leaves beautiful?

I will probably edit this post later to talk more about this and that, but I have to go do school now, so, until later....

You make it sound so easy. "I want you to make me a flower for my hat" she said. And so I did. And it was beautiful, too! Did you find a tutorial online somewhere?

Your mom is very pretty, two, btw. :o)
