First Project

An overwhelmingly stressful trip to JoAnn Fabric................................. $42


Husband helping unpack bags and boxes of fabric from freecycle.com donors....... $0



First completed sewing project ....................................................PRICELESS!


Okay, so that project wasn't actually made from any of that freecycle fabric, but instead, from some pants I got in India! The bag is REALLY badly done, but at least it functions. It's my first project, what can I say? The seams are not straight and that fabric was really hard to work with, but I'm beginning to get the hang of threading my sewing machine- if that's how you say it. :)

If you've been over to my friend Erica's blog, you can see that I went ahead and gave it to her daughter. I have a feeling she'll be receiving many of my practice projects. :)
