Since last posting, I have bought a sewing machine - shouted at it, got frustrated with it, threaded it incorrectly, shouted at it a bit more and finally got the hang of threading the damn needle!
I made something! Its not great by any means and there are a lot of flaws but, I made a little denim bag - lined and everything!!!!
It comes from a pair of my old jeans - I saw myself in a photo with them on and decided that they were not my style and made me look rather dumpy - so they were stuffed away in (what is now) my fabric scraps drawer!
I now have other projects in the pipeline - IF I can manage to thread that damn needle properly again!
WOYWW is hosted by Julia on http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com and is a fabulous way to have a nosy at the messy desks people are proud to display! Theres a lot of fantastic work going on out there - go and take a look!
congratulations! it's gorgeous
