I've always loved crafts but with work and children its always been a 'fit it in' thing so I've concentrated more on paper crafts, making the odd bag and taking up or repairing the odd hemline, thinking that I would do the big projects when I retired.
Then the crunch came and my retirement was moved from 60 to 66 and I thought that if I don't do these things now I'm never going to do them. Soooooooooooooooo, at 58 I made my first quilt. I've enrolled in several classes and everyone I know is getting a bag for their birthdays.
I started off with quilting, then bags but I new realise that my passion is just sewing. Once spring comes I'm going to enrol in the A-Line skirt class and make myself some skirts in materials that I really like!
GO ME!
