Yeah, I hope to sew some things for K and maybe even some other items eventually so I asked Santa for a sewing machine.
andTHEN?
I opened the box and saw all the attachments and got a little overwhelmed.
Good thing my Mom shows up on Thursday and can probably show me how to thread the bobbin and help me get rolling sewing. I’m a visual person. And when I say “visual” I mean “lemme watch someone else do it!” kind. I DON’T mean “look at those graphics in the owners manual” kind. Maybe I’m more of a “hands on” learner actually. Hmmmm….
Anyway. God willing, I’m gonna sew SOMEdarnTHING eventually.
But in the mean time, I have friends to do it for me!
This LOVELY lady and I cooked up a scheme on twitter (and email) for her to make these SUPER awesome SUPER hero capes for my kidlets. This was after I saw the ones she had made for her niece and nephew.
Aren’t they just the cutest doggone things? Especially on K? I mean c’mon!!! I’m a dyin’ over here from a cute-attack!!
Thank you again Heather for making the SUPER duper capes. The kids love ’em and I’ve been tying them on A LOT since they opened them up! xo
Genny says

I wanted a sewing machine for about two days once. Then I saw my mom’s and realized an iPad would be more my speed! And, yes, we have to play Words with Friends. Dumb Dad takes days to respond and plus I beat him!
Lainey-Paney says
Those are waaaaay cool!
And have fun with your new sewing machine!
🙂
Auntie E says
Oh I love it. Watching the kids play is percious.
Happy Holidays to you.
My WW is up on my At home with Auntie E-site.
That Janie Girl says
Very very cute! i’m impressed!
Jen says
Last year, I got capes for my kids and yes, they are so cute.
Kami's Khlopchyk says
I have a sewing machine too, but don’t really no how to use it either. That’s what Mom is for, isn’t it? 😉
Those capes are fantastic! And I see the Bakugan cards on the floor – looks like our place!
Burgh Baby says
That’s pretty awesome. I swear twitter is made of magic and glitter and lots of crazy-skilled people.
Krystyn says
Those capes are AWESOME! Might have to remember this for next year.
And, I’m totally a visual person, too…and no sewing machine for me!
Cheryl says
didn’t Tori Spelling have those for a party? I thought I saw them on her show…so so cute. Every kid is a super hero and should own a cape…although my boy may think he could fly with it….
nicole says
Love them! I got LCS a cape this Christmas too. Hers came with a felt eyemask, so cute.
Kat says
Oh my gosh, those are SO CUTE!!!!
I want a sewing machine too but I KNOW I would be overwhelmed. So I just don’t sew. 😉
I really would like to learn though.
Christina says
Oh golly, SO cute! Serious cute overload going on. I’ve made some superhero capes…but they dim in comparison to these. Oh, and I had grand plans of sewing Christmas gifts, which didn’t really happen….Oh well!
Lady Mama says
I love those super hero capes. Awesome!
Melissa says
Sooo cute!! My mom is coming over Saturday to introduce me to the sewing machine I bought 6 months ago! Good luck!
Heather says
I am so glad that they loved them and that you did as well. I am sure you will be able to sew many beautiful things, just take it one thing at a time and don’t get overwhelmed.
Also…you play WWF? I am hdurdil :O)
