It took me nearly a year to actually take the sewing machine I inherited out of its box! I did it yesterday. It had no instruction manual so ‘God bless You Tube!’.

I haven’t actually made a garment yet, rather embellishing a couple, but I’m taking baby steps. I can now thread the machine with confidence which is something I couldn’t do 2 days ago, so I’m quite proud of myself.

My next goal is to make a skirt. Wish I’d started doing this 4 weeks ago! I only have 1 week of holidays left and then it’s back to the kids. Where did the time go?

    Well, Adelle, threading the machine with confidence is half the battle! Your embellished shirts are very cute!
