Anyone who has ever opened the front door wearing track pants and a misshaped t-shirt covered in thread and fluff will understand the value of this advice. For the most part I will often find my socks cased in thread after a day of sewing. Even though I have to pick every last one off before putting them in the washing machine, I don't really mind.
This is my hobby. I began at 15 years of age, taking lessons from my aunty in the skills of quilting for a school Textiles project. Since then, I have made twelve quilts in addition to several aprons, oven mitts, towels, pillows, portfolios, clothing and accessories. Quilting is a joy for me and I have always wanted to journal my progress.
So this is my first day at twelve finished quilts. I have the company of my two Pfaff Sewing Machines, my Hobby 380 (my first sewing machine) and my new Quilt Expression 4.2. I hope to learn and to teach and inspire others to sew and create new things.
So… I’m mentally preparing and putting myself out there.
PS: There is likely to be more than just quilts... coffee being one of them...
