Hi

I’ve been sewing on and off for as long as I can remember (I should be better at it than I am!!).

Returning from an a patch of time away from sewing.  Currently making a few pair of curtains to keep out the winter draughts.  I’d quite like to enjoy some slightly smaller projects once the last pair is up!

Hello.  :)

Welcome to the forum.
I don't envy you making curtains. I'm pleased with them when I've made them but hate lugging them around to measure, pin, stitch.....ugh!

Hello and welcome to TSP.

Besides curtains, what other things do you like to sew?

Do you need any enabling to purchase fabric, machines etc? If so, you’ve come to the right place!  :laughing:

 Thank for the welcome!  :loveit:

I know, the lugging around bit with curtains is not fun!   Fortunately I have some catering tables that I can put up while I’m lining in etc

I’d like to try some freehand machine work, if my machine is up to it (if not I may have to look at buying another one   0_0 )

The temptation to buy fabric!!  I’m like a moth to the flame, luckily (or not) I have some good shops nearby!

Welcome to TSP. I'm another one that can sew curtains and have sewn curtains but really don't like doing them. All those endless seams and piles of fabric..... ugh!
I hope you enjoy your stay here and look forward to getting to know you.
So many beers, so little time.
