Hi Guys

Many thanks

That's really pretty Sarahjovi. I made one from that pattern the other day - I'll have to get a photo posted. Next time I make one I'm going to make it a bit bigger - you can't get much in the normal size one!

OOh I love love love this thread! Please can I join in even tho I'm very rusty
Used to sew loads years ago - made all my own clothes even a skirt suit for a job interview. I'm a 4th generation seamstress so its in the blood

But its been so long since I've made anything, my poor machine is dying for something creative to do instead of repairing torn seams and altering hemlines. I've loved looking at all your projects, some of you are so creative and imaginative, I really need to get that bit of my brain working again.
Hopefully I'll have something to contribute soon, gonna start easy I think, I want to do a nice apron and some basic shopping bags instead of horrid 'bag for life' plastic-ness.
