Jun. 24, 2009 - Sewing For Myself

Posted in Sewing

Mine has always been a love/hate relationship with the sewing machine.  I love old sewing machines, and what you can do with them, but something always go wrong when I put my foot to the pedal. 

However, face with the possible prospect of living in a motorhome with limited space, and having to make every piece of clothing count, I decided it was time I make sew myself some clothes. 

Oh, and Shannon from A Maiden's Musings always inspires me, too. 

I have one project to finish, though, before I can truly begin work on my


blouses, skirts and dress. 

I really can't wait, though, and I hope they turn out as lovely as I imagine them in my head.  They usually don't, but I always hope they do. 

I will definitely post pictures of my finished garments.  That is, if I like them. 

I am so excited!  I love getting new clothes!

Thanks for being a faithful friend of my blog. I love to get comments from you. In fact, you could be my youngest daughter's twin! I'll have to send you a photo.

You might be living in a motorhome? Wow, what an adventure! I love your photos of your sewing things. You would get along so well with my girls! They LOVE to sew.

Tell your wonderful Mom hello. :)

I do not like sewing, but I persevere in it so I can teach my daughters. I am not very detail oriented!

Good for you though! I am impressed! :)

Love,
Sarah Mae

I enjoy sewing too. Sewing machines are "piling up" around here. I have my great-grandmother's, my grandmother's, my mother's and mine. Now my daughter's little machine whirs and spins.

Wow! That is so incredibly neat that you're going to start sewing your clothes. I'm looking forward to enjoying pics of them.

Have a very bright, very cheery day yourself too!
