Sew What?

I remember having one sewing class in middle school.  We actually sewed on treadle sewing machines...just foot power.  I kept trying to sew and was able to decipher patterns pretty well, but not everything I made I would want to wear.

Here is a dress I made when I was a teenager, 16 or 17.  The year would have been 1960-61 perhaps.
It had lots of bright flowers and was silky to the touch.  I love that I know how to sew some simple things.  It's a very useful skill.  I made underwear for your parents a few times!  LOL

Would I be back in style?

Initially Great!

These, I believe are the last of the birthday initials from 2013!  I had a great time making them for each of the grandkids and I learned lots of good stuff too.  I had a friend help with the framing that made them all look fantastic!
