The other day I made an apron. It was not the best job I have done, but the bonus was I learnt some things along the way. Alway a good thing. 1 day ago

LadymayJanuary 2012

I bought myself a sewing machine for Christmas 2011. I decided I would make a goal of sewing for 2012 this way the machine doesn’t sit there without being used.

  • Purchased two sewing kits from Connecting Threads.
    1. Gift bags & stem copies kit
    2. Provence placemats kit

Completed
Gift bags & stem copies kit (2 gift bags and 12 cozies)

Lesson Learned
It was tough sewing a 1/4 inch bias. I even steamed the cloth. I purchased a clover device which should aid in the future. Even thinking about purchasing a bias feet for my machine. 2 weeks ago


proudauzzieVery happy.

Today I bought some sewing machine needles, but not just ordinary ones. But ones that are much easier to thread. They are made specifically for visually impaired people, which includes myself.
I am really happy about this, as I can be more independant with my sewing, as I do not have to rely on my husband for threading the sewing machine for me. :) 2 weeks ago

JessebelAt this stage...

I don’t even know how to sew a button and I have a pile of clothes that need mending. I’d also like to learn how to hem my own pants, etc., so I think I’ll start with that kind of small stuff first. 2 weeks ago
