I've been perusing some of the craft blogs, and I'm really feeling inspired. After looking at all of the very cute projects here (hat-tip to Randi!), and because of my affinity for vintage and thrift-store stuff, I very, very, very want to learn to sew. My machine is fixed, and I've spent the morning cleaning the basement craft room (though I'm not done. Not even close!), and I'd like to start making some cute dresses, dolls and quilts for my girls. I need curtains, and I just can't see buying new ones when I can find vintage ones, or at least fabric, to make my own.I have been waiting for quite a long time to find someone who could teach me to sew, and people have been kind enough to offer, but it never seems to gel. Now, I figure, I taught myself to knit from a book. I think it's time I tackle sewing.
Any suggestions for beginner's resources, books or projects, please share!
