Hi

My name is Chris from Ryedale in North Yorkshire and I'm not a sewing expert by any means. However my girlfriend is but shes not very technical so I've joined to pass on her questions!

I'm the technical one and I'm also a professional model maker so we have different skills which can occasionally work together. Eg I can make dolls house furniture which she can then upholster or make the covers etc for.

Hi and welcome

As it neared the top of the grade, it went more slowly. However, it still kept saying, "I—think—I—can, I—think—I—can." It reached the top by drawing on bravery and then went on down the grade, congratulating itself by saying, "I thought I could,  I thought I could."
