trying to be crafty.

Two years ago for Christmas,
I got a sewing machine.
I wanted one forever.
I have done a lot of hemming, and sewing up holes,
but nothing from 'scratch.'
.
I need to take lessons.
Today, I made some of my pants into shorts.
bermuda style shorts.
I did a pretty good job,
and had a pretty straight stitch.
.
I will be making Halloween costumes for my children
and their children in the future.
My next goal is to make a dress.
But that probably wont happen until I'm out of school,
or have a lot of time on my hands.
.
.
3 more summer classes left!
can't wait.

  2. Let's do it! We might as well go to at least one sewing class, test it out, ya know? And hey we live right by each other, so we can car-pool.
