  • Hi all,

    I started sewing this, well last year when my mm bought me a machine for my Birthday. I haven't had much experience but I can sew if yo know what I mean. I know how too just haven't really sewn much!

    Anyway, i'm doin the frugal living challenge and have sstarted (trying to) bake! Hence I need an apron for myself and DD as we are very messy! Now am I right in thinking these would not be difficult to sew myself and give me some practice?

    Any tips greatly appreciated :j

    Thank you so much for this, will have a look just now.
  • Hello! ;):D

    I've resurrected my sewing machine too. I've got about 30 lavender hearts to make as favours for my wedding. If I don't manage to master sewing nice curves then they will be lavender pillows instead :p

    Edited to add:
    Sewing projects page from the Prima website.

    Hello! Fancy meeting you here :T:T:T

    Bung some of those lavender hearts up my way if you want a hand :rotfl:
  • Well I made myself a fabric heart to match my good night angel, it's not perfect but I still like it :D and after all it is my first attempt. I also attempted to make a fabric storage box which was a complete failure and has been banished to the far corner of my craft room:rotfl: The fabric heart is on my blog if anyone wants a peek:D
