Smocking

In better news, I have learned to smock. After the john john was so easy, I decided to shoot for the stars. So, I smocked a little bag for Laine to drag around and will start practicing other designs, etc. I hand pleated the bag which took a lot of time but will probably take the rest to be pleated for me (didn't know that was an option!). It is fun and very relaxing. No one can make fun of me if I take my *new* sewing bag around to playdates!!!

If I ever get home I will be making more john johns so stay tuned for more pictures!
