Streamer Stress

No time for blogging right now...I'm up to my elbows in gold, red and purple satin. I got recruited to make some streamers for the children's choir creative movement team at church. They have their Christmas program this Sunday night and need streamers for their "routine" - do they call it a routine? I don't know....

Anyway, they actually need them before Sunday to rehearse with, as in Thursday night, so I am busy, busy, busy!

I've cut all 60 of them out, I'm about halfway through serging them, but still have to serge the rest then attach them to the elastic band that they will wear around their wrists.



When I get them done and can brush the dust off, I'll be back!

  1. Good luck, little Elf! That is so sweet of you to do that for them. I can only imagine how awesome the streamers will look with you in charge of them!

    Just thinking about it makes me want to get one and bust out in a routine myself. :-)

  5. If I lived by you I would totally come help you.
    Except I don't know how to sew and I can't cut a straight line. So basically I would just come talk to you.

  17. As Ernest P. Worrell would say, "EEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWW"! (Remember him...I LOVE Ernest Saves Christmas and Ernest Goes to Camp). But that's beside the point. :)

    Chad needs to take you out to celebrate when you get done with that little project!
