I don't think we've ever persuaded anyone to buy a bigger house for their sewing... yet...
What about Lowena???
She and her OH went from a diddy 3 bedroom cottage to a 5 bedroom mansion ....
Only then she chickened out and only has the tiniest room for her sewing
@Penabby ... I cant really help you with The Lightside, I'm a Darksider through and through ...
but Craftsy, now know as Bluprint, have very good classes, some free, in lots of disciplines ...
and as a beginner ... My advice is to try and resist sewing .. For example if you were a Darksider, a double bed quilt for your first project, as almost everybody wants to (and some do
) ... it will overwhelm you, and put you off for life!
What would the lightside equivalent be ?? A boned ballgown?? A sequined cocktail dress???
