Please Pray...
...as I am about to embark upon sewing 13 (I think) buttonholes and buttons to Paige's blouse.
This is one that I am selling so I want it to be worth selling, so please pray that the buttonholer and machine will work and that it will turn out looking nice! :-)
Most of all, pray that I would have a spirit of patience and that I would not get frustrated as I sew. I find that sewing often brings out the attitudes in my heart, and I want those to be Christlike attitudes and not selfish, earthly attitudes.
(Anyone else out there scared of buttonholes?)

Hugs!
I refuse to make machine buttonholes and actually don't even know how to do machine buttonholes on my current machine. I do them all by hand now and it takes about 4-6 minutes per buttonhole. Not that much longer, time-wise, and I do have a lot more control that way.
I hope yours come out well! I'm sure they will. Things ALWAYS come out better when they are prayed about first! :)
I discovered that the buttons I was planning on using were too off-color so tomorrow we are going to JoAnn's and I am going to get some white ones (that are the right size). Meanwhile, I have been having lots of fun with another project but I sha'n't tell you now... ;-) I'll make you wait... ;-)
It's not too hard to do buttonholes by hand, though when I do them they don't turn out looking as nice. ;-)
