Leap Year!

I'm finally taking the plunge, blogging about my sewing adventure.  I started back sewing after a 20 year hiatus.  I lost interest because of my lack of skill and knowledge; attacking a pattern by the instructions with total faith that it would turn out fine, it didn't.  This time I've taken classes, read books, watched dvd's and immersed myself in the process.  Guess what?  I've made two or three things that I love and they fit!  I've actually sewn about 25 garments over the past three years and even made a quilt.  Finally I'm making some progress and gaining an understanding of what this fitting/sewing thing is all about.  I'm hoping that this blog will get me sewing more consistently as I've been on a bit of a slump, but, I'm almost finished with Simplicity 4081- I'll be posting some photos very soon.  Stay tuned.
