This picture is an initial "fitting" of the shepherd's costumes I made late last night. I am pleasantly surprised how nice they turned out. When I was first roped....er....asked to do this, I pictured purchasing two brown bath robes.
I am also thankful for my grandmother in this project! She passed away almost ten years ago. I, as her only granddaughter, received all of her sewing things. I have bins and bins of sewing notions. What are sewing notions? Those are all the little things you need while sewing like buttons, seam tape, thread, snaps, hooks, etc. Whenever I have a project like this, and I need a little "something" I just pull out bins, and manage to find embellishments that are perfect. I also can't help but think how old some of those things are, like 25 years plus. So, when you see the final project later, and you see anything that isn't the color of the brown and sage pillowcase, remember to thank God for putting such a great woman like my grandmother on this earth. She was a great lady.
The pageant is today at church. There will be quite the fun slide show coming soon.
