My wonderful family have purchased for me a sewing machine as a christmas gift.
My wonderful partner has set aside a space in the house in which to use it and provided me with a sewing basket to keep my things organised.
I have two dress patterns sat on the shelf and some fabric in my drawer.
I guess I’d better get cracking.

Learning to sew
13 months ago
I have a clunky old sewing machine with a number of issues so initially I have been learning to hand sew, and the best way to do this seem to be repairing old clothes that needed patching up.
I’m getting bizarrely good at it and I’m starting to look at dress patterns now, thinking about taking the plunge and just seeing if i can make one.
Chemically is the first step
13 months ago
Though it doesn’t remove the physical presence, since being chemically castrated i feel so much better.
This is only the first step in a long process but I just cannot express how fulfilling it has been so far.
