I'm a lockdown cliche....I have bought a lovely little sewing machine and me and my daughter have set out on our mission to make her some clothes (she is very tall, so struggles to buy skirts and trousers).

I have a feeling I'm going to need some handholding though as even the easiest patterns are challenging right now! I'm going to hop over to another board and ask my first question.

Very pleased to meet you all and looking forward to where this journey takes us!  :vintage:  :flower:

Welcome!  :drink:  We love helping people.   :D
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Hello!  Have fun with your sewing, and ask questions - we love lots of questions.  There's some very knowledgeable folk here - not me of course, I just throw things together and think that'll do  0_0 0_0

A warm welcome from me too. You'll find that sewing is addictive, and great fun too, especially when you have someone to share it with - that's where we come in. :)
