Sewing Project

I have to admit that my husband bought me a sewing machine for my birthday (last March) and I've only used it twice. I finally decided after reading other blogs that I was not going to let this beastly machine whoop me. I realized that I was totally over analyzing everything that I had to do. Big surprise because I do that in everything that I do (at least according to my husband). I sat down calmly, gave the "beast" a little lecture to be nice, and did it. My purse is a bit on the wonky side, but it's usable!

I'm also planning to try my hand at this apron!!!! I've sat and watched both of my grandmother's sew for years but with half-hearted interest. Now as an adult with four children it's almost a necessity to make some things from scratch. Hopefully after the hubby comes home from driving over the road I'll be able to sneak away for a sewing class or two.....
