...Sew Fun!

I have been searching and searching for clothing patterns that work for women... there are a lot of tutorials and free patterns out there for kid clothes and diaper bag-esque accessories but nothing for adults that are baby free! I went to A&E Pharmacy when I was in Pensacola a couple weekends ago and they honor coupons from Jo-Ann's and they had 40% off patterns and .... let's just say I went a little crazy (after telling Brett I was done spending money that weekend! sorry honey! ).

I picked a few dress patterns and came home with new projects I was determined to finish! I completed a shirt and last night I finished one of the dresses I had a pattern for! I am getting together with a couple friends to work on some projects they wanted done! this is the best kind of practice: new projects, learning new techniques, food and fun, and it's free for me because the girls pick out their fabric! I am hoping I can help them learn a little about sewing too! hmmm.... we may be on to something.... a modern day sewing cirlce? Update on guitar, weight and cooking coming soon!

How precious the clothes are! You are very talented just like your Mom. I know the fellowhsip is great when you get together with friends to sew.
