Calling All Crafters

I have recently found a new hobby....SEWING! I love it! I am not amazingly talented at it yet, but I am learning. I just finished making two dresses for my daughters and I have almost finished a shirt. A couple of weekends I purchased more fabric for a skirt and pajamas. So exciting! I will post some pictures of the dresses later this week. In the meantime, if you are itching to sew... I would highly recommend the book Making Children's Clothes by Emma Hardy. It is what I have gotten my patterns from and it has really easy step by step directions. Happy Sewing!

Heidi, How fun! My daughter & I have gotten into sewing this summer, too. Our machine is older than I am and it is nearly done in. Any recommendations on sewing machines, by chance?

Hi Katy! That is great you have been sewing! I got my machine a number of years ago for a birthday present. I am pretty sure my specific machine is no longer available but the brand is Husqvarna. I have been really happy with it!
