Introduction to sewing

I have spend most of the day in my favourite shop, sewing. It was an introduction to sewing workshop, I can hand sew but this was using machines which has always terriefied me.

There was only a small group of us which was lovely as it was really relaxed and we were all in the same boat.

The other four woman made cushions which were fab, I would have loved to make a cushion but I have enough cushions, what I really wanted to make was bunting to hang on my beautiful new dresser that was delivered yesterday.

Once all the fabric triangles were cut out (which took up most of the time) it was fairly easy to put together, even though sewing in a straight line proved a little difficult at times.

My lovely bunting looks fabulous on my dresser, I have a real sense of pride.

 

I have also signed myself up for another workshop in March, which is Patchwork quilting. I have always wanted to make one but never knew how. I am planning on getting the girls old clothes and special baby grows that I kept and incorporating them into it. I really can't wait to go to that one.
