That makes my imagination race! I really wish I could sew, but threading that infernal machine of mine has me stumped. I always admire you sewin' ladies.

I know how you feel, I can't sew anything... unless I'm joining two crochet pieces with a whip stitch, and even then I sort of have to hope it stays. Sewing machines are completely out of the question, I can't even be in the same room with my mom's.

I am the worst with lawn equipment, I think machinery in general fails when I get too close! I think some lessons would help, or a friend who would come over and thread it every time I need it :p.

I finished up one project today and *thisclose* to finishing another.  Definitely making progress!

I've been trying to teach my daugther to sew on my old machine, and since I was totally self taught, I have no idea if I'm actually showing her correctly.  I'd love to hook her up with a real sewing class.

Ok, I found a 2nd piece to fill in for the rest. But the 5 yards were OOAK so it doesn't quite match....this is either a good thing because it accents or bad because the color is too different....

AHH I'M OVERTHINKING! HELP!

...I'm going to take a break from this one tomorrow and get started on the last piece I think....  Roll Eyes

*sends soothing vibes your way* No worries lady, I am sure it was a happy accident. I find most of my best pieces were improvisation.

I always notice too much on my own work. It's good because it helps me to get things better, but at the same time I never want to stop making "improvements" or "fixing" things that weren't really broken...

If I'm honest it looks cool, but it is improve...so it is what it is! Cheesy
