I'm so excited!!!! Today Isabella and I traveled down to Bonney Lake to one of my favorite craft stores to look for some birthday decorations for her upcoming party. While we were in the store, Isabella saw a tu tu hanging up on display. She looked and said, "Mom there is a pretty and I want it." For those of you who know me, know that the sewing machine and I do not get along, and I really dislike sewing, so my reply to Isabella was that we would go to another store and I would purchase a tu tu for her birthday. However, we bumped into a clerk, who overheard my discussion with Isabella and she told me that these were really simple to make and that she would be happy to show me how to make one. The next thing I knew I was making a tu tu for Isabella and it did not require any sewing! The clerk was correct the tu tu was very easy and quick to make not to mention it only cost me $8.00 verses $25.00 that I would pay in the store for one. If any of you would like to learn how to make one I would be happy to show you. It was a really fun project and I'm sure Miss. Bella will want more in different colors.
