It's not quite Pandora's, but it's out of the box!!

Ok, so a few days after my first post, I was feeling rather guilty for not taking the machine out of its box. So I did! *Yey!! Woohoo!! Yippie!! Does the running man*

But here’s the gotcha! I still haven’t used it! INFACT it went from box to bag! - How sad!? :(



The worst thing is, I bought fabric, I’ve got patterns, I’ve got How To’s, I’ve even got snacks, but I just haven’t sewed anything! I don’t know what’s stopping me, it’s getting to the stage where I’m feeling quite fed up with it all! In my head I’ve made countless pieces which have received ooohhh’s and aaahhh’s! But in reality there’s nothing!

Methinks it’s time to rethink this whole sewing plan, as it’s just simply not happening!

...I'll be back after this short intermission with more details on my new plan! (",)

Makings of a great Fashion Disaster!

I bought my first sewing machine on Sat (31st May) – YEY me!!! But it’s still in the box!! I wonder if I had at least opened it, would Yves Saint Laurent, still be alive!? – Answers on a postcard people!

So anyway, I’ve decided to become more proactive in my later years (ok so I exaggerate a little, I'm only 26), and instead of day-dreaming about things I wanna do, I’ve actually done something about it, like buying a sewing machine! – Isn’t that great!? I’ve never used one before, but I’ve got books and a bunch of ideas for designs and ish! However, the actual prospect of using the blasted thing scares me a little! *Where’s Dr. Phil when you need him!*

...I’ll be back after this short intermission with more details on my first sewing date! (“,)
