I think I'm going to take up sewing. This has been something that has nagged T me for years, which is a bit absurd. After all, I own three sewing machines. Yes, three. They keep coming into my life and my home, and amazingly enough, no matter what I do, I can't seem to make those suckers work. They always end up with a tangled mess around the bobbin, or the whole thing just sort of seizes up. At first, I thought it was the machi2 that were at fault. After all, I'm a pretty crafty girl. I'm a more than competent knitter. I make my own yarn. Really, what could be so difficult about running a sewing machine. Even kids do it all the time.
In an effort to get these machines working, I had some sewing friends of mine take them for a test drive. I was completely disgusted to hear that the machines were just fine, and actually worked very well. Hmm.
Further proof that I'm supposed to be sewing something lies in the fact that I have multiple totes of beautiful fabric, and by multiple, I mean no less than five. If the universe didn't want me to do this, I can't imagine that so much sewing paraphernaliaon would have been dumped in my lap to steal space in my house.
So, in the face of all of this evidence, I think it's time to put some of these lovely fabrics to work decorating my home. If I can ever figure out how to make those stupid sewing machines work!
