Eleven Years Old!

Eleventh birthday party today with friend Ann, who is just 15 days younger than Daughter M. We had an apron day and designed aprons out of vintage hankies and ribbon. Ann's mom and I sewed (or helped sew) the aprons for each girl. I had a big collection of hankies from years past. It was a fun way to use them. These girls have all been in my art classes, so I knew how creative and excited they can get with new projects. They all made great aprons, and we all had fun!
