A little back story &#8211; when we found out the girls&#8217; color we were joking that they should be the Terrible Teals so we could make them some Terrible Towels ala the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.footballfanatics.com\/NFL_Pittsburgh_Steelers\/browse\/featuredproduct\/110084\/partnerid\/2457\/source\/froogle_CA?CAWELAID=1005285372\" target=\"_blank\">Pittsburg Steelers&#8217; towel<\/a>.

So we prepped pieces for everyone in her class and she taught her fellow students to sew a mini monster pillow modeled after the version she made at her birthday party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"IMG_4192 by Voris, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/voris\/6279103526\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm7.static.flickr.com\/6050\/6279103526_b393f8c938_z.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_4192\" width=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">She did terrific and all of the kids were so excited with their creations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"IMG_4193 by Voris, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/voris\/6278582177\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm7.static.flickr.com\/6178\/6278582177_91a1cbf60d_z.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_4193\" width=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Thankfully I had two other moms help with the threading of 30 different needles. Yes, it was two afternoons of exercises in patience, but it was fun in the end.<\/p>\n<p>And then we went from that straight to making t-shirts for the 30 Girl Scouts. Yeah&#8230;all of this the same week as our major Carnival. It was an exhausting week. But in the end it was all good. The tees turned out cute, too.<\/p>\n<p>Each girl has a t-shirt with their name in the middle of the trefoil and the troop number on the sleeve.
