Thank you for your warm welcome.
I have attached a photo of my DD (and our
) wearing the outfit that got me sewing again - yes the outfit was for my DD not the dog lol!
DD wanted a tweed/country style skirt but is allergic to wool, a staple in most country style outfits, hence the need for Mum and so I bought a polyester herringbone tweed effect fabric for the skirt and downloaded a pdf from the sew-so-easy website (a first for me as last time I was sewing we were still using dial-up for an internet connection and it was SLOW). The shirt was also a downloaded pdf and is a fabric with country scenes.
Fortunately it all fitted well and didn’t do anything embarrassing like coming apart mid-run!
Now I’m finding ordering fabric on-line & buying pdfs is just too easy and I’m already building up a new stash when my aim was to use up my old stash. I think I need to spend less time on the pc & more sewing
