Esme has graduated from the crib to a big girl bed. Eunice brought her sewing machine over during naptime, this afternoon, and together we repurposed the crib sheet into two euro pillow shams. The crib sheet matches the wallpaper in the little girls’ room, and it cost a small fortune (but come on, a perfect match? I saw it and bought it immediately, shouting, “Shut up and take my money!” at the Amazon cart), so even though it brought me 6 months of joy, I’m super happy to be able to reuse the fabric.
I also loved the time spent with Eunice sitting across my kitchen table. We measured and cut and pinned and stitched and talked about important things like homemade salsa, California, Hank (her doggie), libraries, books, and Danish modern furniture.
I love her.
Pics of the finished products to come as soon as I get the pillows stuffed into them. Everything is so much more enjoyable when done with a friend, isn’t it?
