I had my one and one sewing class this past Saturday and let me tell you something Carol is the best. She taught me how to do a neckline and how to install an invisible zipper. The class before that she taught me darts and how to sew on buttons in a couture fashion (which I have used on some clothes I already own) that really secures the buttons to the clothing.
She also took my measurements for me and let me know that I would always have to alter a pattern because of my measurements. I am debating on if I will be taking another class with a different instructor who will show me how to alter patterns to fit my body.
I am so excited and I can not wait to start sewing up a storm.. I already have a stash of patterns and some fabric.. My first project is going to be a tote bag.
Wish me luck

A new day
I am feeling so good today I want to dance in the rain. (yeah right) Okay maybe not in the rain because I don't want to get my hair wet. I am in a good place right now and I am so in love with who I am and my determination to achieve my goals for 2009.
So my sewing is coming along pretty well and I am excited. I still love writing in my blog and I will increasing the entries. The funny thing is I always thinks that no is reading this and then I get an email or a phone call asking me about something I wrote.
Only a few people leave comments and it is okay. I know you lurkers are out there.
