hippie madison



Any excuse to play dress up, especially when the school says so.

Last Friday was hippie day at Madison's school. Who better to help Madison prepare than Aunt Carrie, a fan of bell-bottom jeans and her own hippie days at school. Carrie and Sicilley would sit for hours cutting and sewing things onto their jeans - flowers, peace signs, etc.



First, they had to change regular straight leg jeans into bell-bottoms by splitting the seam and adding an insert.



They even drew out their plan on paper (not sure if this came from the family construction or sewing background).

I received all these pictures via e-mail, I told them I was so proud - my girls can sew!
