Do you have a hobby that awaits you?
A sewing course has been on my agenda for sometime. I have many sewing projects that burden my hopes and dreams, and space in my home with various bins full of untouched cloth. Yet a very novice sewing student am I. My need is to be guided through projects as I build on my basic skill of sewing. And connecting with other seamstresses is a always a social plus for me.
In order to follow through with this agenda item, I am currently a student at Camp Fashionista, http://www.campfashionista.net enrolled in Sewing School.
The first course, we were taught the basic functions and shown the mechanical parts of the sewing machine. We learned the steps of sewing, from winding the bobbin to the threading of the machine. After the basics were covered, we were free to practice with different stitches as so to become familiar with the machine.
In this class, I made my very first spool cover. This was not the intention of the teacher at all. I just wanted to utilze my scrap of cloth with unkempt stitches into something useful. Useful does not quite explain my piece just yet, but it was a lot of fun to make.
Only time is in my way now. No longer am I struggling with “how will I learn to sew”? Now I just need time and to practice more.
What steps do you need to take to get your hobbies off the shelf?

Happy Organizing!
