Category: Sewing

Cotton fabric

What was your inspiration?

I purchased a new Brother Innov-is 40 for my upcoming 65th birthday because my 23 year old Brother had sewn its last seam. I thought this class would be a great introduction to making something easy to try out my new machine.

What are you most proud of?

I think it came out great! I'm a certified Level 1 Master Hand Knitter but a certified Terrible Sewer. Thanks to the great instruction and my snazzy new machine, I'm excited by how well the tote came out.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Take this class!!! You'll learn a lot!!

Thank you! I've been having fun with my machine. Made some more totes, a skirt for me and today I'll try sewing a baby swaddler for a baby shower gift.
