Sewing and snowing

As I mentioned in the last post, I am going to try my hand at sewing! My wonderful mama sent me an early, early birthday present (b-day not until July)...a sewing machine!! Thanks, Mom! With she and my sister starting a booth in Summerfield, called Southern Revival, I kind of had the itch to do something myself. Also over the holidays, my dear friend Kelly M. and I got in the crafty mood and cranked out some cute, inexpensive things. So a sewing machine quickly jumped to number #1 on my wish list! I will admit that I haven't really sewn anything in a long time, quite possibly since the obligatory pj bottoms, or maybe they were shorts, that we had to make in the high school home economics class. 


I was nervous/anxious to get the machine set up, but with some the help of the manual, I had it ready to sew in no time! I was also a little nervous to sew, like I said it had been awhile, but it was like riding a bike, once you get started again... 


Although, I still have my training wheels on (this machine can do way more than I know how to do right now), I was excited to start my first project right away! What that project is...you will just have to wait and see! And yesterday couldn't have been a more perfect day to sit inside and sew...it was snowing! It was so pretty coming down, and didn't last long on the ground. My kind of snow! I got a lot accomplished, and I hope to have something to show you soon. 


Oh, and check out Southern Revival on Facebook, if you haven't yet. They already have some beautiful, revived items for purchase!
