PTI Day 6: Button Challenge

Today's challenge from PTI was to make a project using buttons. I decided to CASE Nichole's pin project using felt and a button because it was just so darn cute!
Here are the pins I did:
I decided to make two. One for my daughter Teia and the other for her American Girl doll Ruthie.
The pins are attached to matching aprons that my favorite me'mere made for Teia. (Me'mere's name is Rita and she's Maria's mother-in-law and a good friend to the kids and I). Rita also did the doll dress that Ruthie is wearing. She is very talented with her sewing skills and makes the cutest gifts for Teia. I am completely jealous cuz' I have zero sewing abilities. 

Still keeping my fingers crossed that a PTI prize is headed my way! The prize package this time is a doozy and would make me one very happy mama…

Thanks for stopping by!
