| The final project! Every once in a while, something takes me aback and makes me miss Grandma Amy all over again. Grandma Amy taught me how to sew, and was one of the most talented seamstresses that I have ever met. She made my mother's wedding dress, my first prom dress (after all I specified was that I wanted to "look like Cinderella") and several dresses for my sister Katie. |
Yesterday I decided to sew a laptop sleeve for my new MacBook Pro. I looked at patterns online to figure out the proportions for the sleeve, then went to JoAnn's to get crafty. As I meandered through the aisles of fabric and picked up all the necessary things, it made me miss Grandma Amy. I feel very blessed that I was able to learn as much from her as I could, but really wish that she was still around to call when I have questions about my sewing projects. Or furthermore, to just call when I want to talk. I really wish that she was still with us. The world is a little lonelier without Amy Rody in it.

| Then I angled and pinned the zipper and sewed the outer layers together and inner layers together. |
