Don't Laugh!

I said, don't laugh!!
Yes, this is me with a MACHINE SEWEN running stitch making a ruffle ... but wait....

Yes, this is me actually machine sewing!

Can you believe it? Yes, I think pigs are actually flying! hehe

THANK YOU Bonnie for coming in with your machine and teaching me how to use it -- I'm so excited!! Next, curtains! .....and you think I jest! *smile*

Can you see what I'm working on?

Yes, totally inspired by the lovely Donna Downey's work. I am making myself a ruffle tote bag in my fav colours: Here's Donna's:
Mine??? to come......

I can't wait to show her at CHA at the end of the month. ... and then chat to her about her upcoming classes here in Kitchener! Yahoo!

Have a creative day everyone!

I knew you could do it!! Great idea - I love it. Sometimes I really miss sewing. Can't wait to see it in person.
