About me

I’m retired and after 35 years I’m back to sewing and loving it! In the past it was clothes for my children on a tight budget but now it’s clothes for myself. I’ve recently had breast cancer and the resulting surgery and weight loss has left me with a shape that off the peg dresses just don’t fit. For the first time since having children I have a flat tummy (reconstructive surgery) but my waist isn’t that slim -ahhhh the joys of getting older. So I’ve returned to sewing which is proving very therapeutic although the cost of fabric these days is a bit of a shock!  I discovered this website through you tube tutorials and it’s been a great way of fine tuning my skills thank you.
