I'm off beading (finally!) and in the look for other things that I can do with the girls. It occurred to me that we could decorate their jeans, bags and other items with appliques. I'd already tried some iron-on ones from the craft store and e-bay before with mixed results, and I thought that the sew in kind may be nicer and more successful. Of course, that was before I realized that Michaela does not like to sew (does she like doing anything?).
Anyway, I bought these appliques (supposedly 150 pieces, I haven't counted them yet) in e-bay from a seller (ohmymini) in China. I received them today and they are lovely - much nicer than I expected. So much so that now I feel bad "wasting them" on whatever I end up using them for. Given that neither Camila and I can't sew, chances are that we'll ruin them on whatever we sew them to. Oh well!
