The Singer

I'm a lucky girl—when Matthew and I got married, his amazing vintage Singer sewing machine was part of the bargain. But truth be told I've always been a little intimidated by it, so I decided to conquer my fears at long last and just completed The Works introductory package at Craft Haven. I can't say enough good things about the classes—I now know my way around buttonholes and zippers and other fun stuff, and what's more, I have a solid understanding of how the machine works. (We used much newer machines in class, but the overview was detailed enough that I was able to figure out the equivalents on our 401a.)

So of course, all I want to do in my free time now is sew. If anyone has any good starter projects, please let me know!
