So, i have started sewing (kind of)


just because i bought an old vintage Kenmore doesn't mean i know what i am doing. nor does that mean i will improve over a reasonable amount of time. what it does mean, however, is that i will be all the more tempted to nickel and dime away my small budget on textiles of any sort. fabric, i have found, can be irresistible and frivolous even when you don’t have an idea on how to put it to use. yards of fabric can be gathered while you mumble in your head “ooh, this would make a perfect skirt…” “OH! this would make a perfect throw pillow…” “this fabric is so unique and vintage, surely I could do something with it!”
