At it Again

As I've been saying,I have done a little changing around lately. I haven't brought out the sewing machine in years but decided I would try my luck at it again. So I made some valances but something was missing so then I took an old frame I had stashed back and covered where the picture goes with the same cloth and added my initial. Maybe corny but I like the end result and I surprized myself,I really enjoyed sewing again. Think I'll recover the porch furniture next.. Look out! More redo's in the future.





and the end result.

    Very clever! I can completely relate to that itch to change things up a bit...or a lot.

    Good job! I have a basic Singer sewing machine circa 1960s, and have probably used it only a dozen times in the 40 years since. Instead of relaxing and challenging me, it irritates and frustrates me!

    Sewing gets me SO STRESSED because I want to see the finished product. Then I RUSH and GUARANTEE a screw up. SOooooo.....I thought maybe a NEW sewing machine might help. A computerized sewing machine would moisten my appetite for self-imposed misery. I got it two weeks ago. It's still in the "junk room" sitting in the corner.

    How creative! I've never seen a frame like that, but your addition to it is perfect; looks like it was made for the fabric and initial!

    So Creative! I used to love to sew, just don't have the time anymore with a little one running around but maybe someday I'll get back to it. For now, writting my blog is about as creative as it gets Lol!
