A Hand-Sewn Gift for Mackenzie

August 11, 2011

Last Tuesday a wonderful package came for Mackenzie from my mom.

We set up a special Skype chat so Mom could watch Mackenzie open her gift.

Isn’t it beautiful? Each letter is hand-sewn and has a ribbon loop on the back so it can be attached in place on the board. Here is my mom’s working design. Cool idea, huh? 🙂

Mackenzie loves playing with the letters. The colors and textures and shapes are so much fun for her. Thank you for a beautiful gift, Mom!

    I love it! Handmade stuff is the best! And the letters are so unique looking. Nothing like what you could buy at the store.
