Last night I completed my very first sewing project...a pillowcase! I've never made anything before so I'm really excited about it - even though some of you experienced seamstresses could probably make it in only a few minutes. After struggling with my machine for what felt like forever I finally figured everything out. I'm really excited about learning how to read a pattern and things like that. If any of you guys have some super-easy projects to share, I'd love to try them out!
And that's it on my bed! (Yes, I realize I'm way too proud of this little pillowcase.)

AWESOME!!! A pillowcase was a perfect first sewing project!!! Nice job~
And yes, I have a "Mimi and Baba" on my Mom's side and "Oma and Opa" on my Dad's side (they're German). I think Nonnie is a great name!
You should be proud! Nice job and I love how it goes with your bedspread. I call my grandmother's Nana and Dot Dot; and we called my great grandmother me-maw...so don't feel bad, you're not the only one:)
I love the pop of color in your outfit and the cardigan. Very nice comfy style.
Awww, grandmother time sounds so nice right now! Today is my grandma's birthday, so I had some quality phone time with her (I wish that she didn't live so far away!) :(
Your pillowcase turned out incredible! I love the fabric that you chose!

Aww I go shopping with my grandmother all the time too and it is one of my most favorite things to do. There is something so special about spending time with grandparents and I am so glad you are able to do that. :)
Also, great job on that pillow case! I love the material pattern you used.

Your pillowcase came out great! I used to hate sewing and most of the time I still do but it opens up all kinds of new options!
Haha :) I remember when I completed my first sewing project I was well happy! if u pick up/buy pattern pieces for dress/top they're easy to
make..i'm working on a dress now it's nearly finished it's took me
a couple of months but it's not that hard.Liked ur blog again btw :) x
The pillowcase is adorable and I can so understand you are proud (I also always have to share stuff I've done with everyone :) ) Loving the scarf with the outfit

you have such a cute hair cut! i keep debating on whether i should go super short...not sure i can pull it off!
SO WEIRD!!! i call my grandmother nonnie, too!!!!!!!
it must be fate...or a common grandmother nickname.
congrats on the sewing project--it feels so good to do something (regardless of whether it's simple or not).
and i love the patterned sweater with the scarf--it is truly lovely.

Let me just say I love your cardigan and scarf... and your hair! By the way, great job on the pillowcase :)
