I just started getting back into crafts. I made needlepoint stockings for my sons when they were little, and I have knitted a few things. I would love to learn to sew.

I work for a company that sells singer sewing machines, and I am trying to learn all about them so I can pick the right one.

Went to the LA fabric district with my sister on Sat. to pick out fabric. What a blast. had the best hot dog off a food truck.

Anyway, taking my first pattern to a real seamstress. Hope it turns out well.
