JUST DOING A BIT OF SEWING
JUST PUSHED MYSELF TO DO A BIT OF SEWING THESE LAST FEW DAYS AS I WAS FEELING REALLY LAZY . I STILL HAVE SOME LOVLEY FABRICS WHICH I PURCHASED OFF EBAY QUITE A FEW YEARS AGO, FROM A SELLER WHO HAD JUST STARTED TO SELL ON EBAY AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME AS I STARTED TO SEW FOR SASHA. HER EBAY I.D IS LALUTHAN, SHE SELLS A LOT OF LIBERTY FABRICS AND OTHER QUALITY COTTONS. WHEN I PURCHASED ALOT OF MY FABRICS IT WAS 2 0R 3 METRES AT A TIME, NOW SHE SELLS ABOUT A QURTER OF A METRE AT A TIME AND I THINK ALOT OF THE FABRICS ARE QUITE PRICY BUT STILL VERY NICE QUALITY. ANYWAY LOOKING AT ALL THESE YARDS OF FABRIC PROMPTED ME TO SWITCH THAT OLD SEWING MACHINE ON. I HAVE A BERNINA 930 AND ALSO A PFAFF CREATIVE, BOTH GOOD MACHINES BUT A BIT OLD BY TODAYS STANDARDS, (ABOUT 30 YEARS OLD I THINK) ONCE I GOT GOING I WAS ON A BIT OF A ROLL AND I HAVE MADE 3 SUMMER SETS FOR SASHA WHICH I WILL SHOW ON HERE WHEN I TAKE THE PICTURES. HOPEFULLY THE WEATHER WILL PERMIT OVER THE EASTER BREAK.

ReplyDeleteive got a bernina 830 so it must be even older than yours !....i dont think i could cope with anything more new and fancy as i dont even know how to use this one properly, im sure it does lots that i dont know about.....

My Bernina is even older! Unfortunately yesterday I jammed it and now it is going to have to go to Mr Repairman. :-(
