I don't sew, or I didn't. Then I decided that I can do anything and decided to sew a blanket for baby girl to match her crib bedding. My original plan was to have multiple skilled sewers working on it with me as an innocent yet trying participant. Then life got busy and crazy and time was running out. So I thought I would give it a solo try! A couple weeks prior my mom lent me her sewing machine and Jessica showed me how to fill the bobbin and thread the machine and they helped me size the fabric (told you I don't sew!)! Then one day I sat down at my table and began with an idea of how I thought you sew a blanket...and it worked! It took me about 5 hours and it most certainly is not perfect...no one is allowed to look closely at it unless they need a good laugh...but I love it! And I did it all by myself which just amazes me! It makes me excited to try more projects...not anything that needs "exactness" but things that are free to self interpretation!
