This is my new pattern that I've been
working on for the last little while.
It's a project that would be fun to have
in your sewing room...
After all...sewing does take a
little bit of faith...
And we all need some encouragement
now and then...
Especially when we're trying something new.
Do you ever wonder if what you're making will really turn out the way you have planned?...
Or if your best will be good enough?
Well I do.
I think we all do.
But the very first step you take is
believing that you can...
And the next step is doing it.
"She believed she could...
SEW she did."
This project was "sew" much fun to design, draw and then to applique.
I've always wanted a turquoise sewing machine so that's what I made!
I used assorted red buttons...my trademark ric-rac for the cord...glass beads for
the pins...woolfelt for the pincushion top and I added vintage embroidery scissors
just for fun!
