Last night, a friend of mine hosted a "sewing party." A group of 6-8 ladies got together, had dinner, chatted over some tea, and then started our sewing projects (or in some cases, just kept chatting!). We had three sewing machines set up, a more experienced sewer to lead us, and the projects began!
The above reversible chef's apron was my project for the night. It's a beginner's project, and took about 2 hours to make. I got to explore my sewing machine with some guided help, and discovered the lovely stitch featured in the middle photo above. It was also great, because the materials for the whole apron costs under $8. But the best part was sewing it with a group of women around for technical and moral support, and everyone was learning together! Such a wonderful way to start the weekend!

Oh cool! One of my kind of resolutions for this year is to learn how to use my sewing machine. I bought it a couple of years ago and have only used it like twice. Sigh....
