sewing...

[Rachel]

hey, i wasnt sure where to put this, so i plonked it here. (if its the wrong place, mods, feel free to move it!)

anyway, does anyone here like sewing? i have always liked sewing when i was at my grans for the holidays, and recently i've tried making clothes. i made my friend a GORGEOUS dress when she dressed up as poison ivy, and i'm almost finished making a little red riding hood costume.

So yeah, has anyone else made anything, or like making stuff like that?

I used to quilt when I was little (learned how in Girl Scouts) but I don't actually sew anymore. I was a very messy quilter....cloth and string everywhere. So my mom kinda encouraged me to take up another needle hobby and bought me a beginner's cross stitch kit.

I've been addicted to cross stitch ever since.

I'm so pathetic sometimes....I'd sit with the laptop in my lap getting a few more stitches in between pageloads.

I'd like to start sewing again....but I have a lot of stitching projects to finish first.

I used to be good at cross stitching. I loved it. Not so much now, I'm terrible at sewing.

[Stijn]

It's too difficult for me.

My old school teacher used to love sewing and all arty things so I'm good at hand sewing but when it comes to actually using a sewing machine I'm not so good. I made a top and a pair of trousers but it took so long I don't think I'll be starting another piece of clothing any time soon.

My friend was also making trousers and ended up with two right legs. I have no idea how that happened. At least she thought it was funny

I'm rubbish at sewing, although I do like the odd cross stitch.

I can sew, quite well. I made a pencil case myself. lol

I used to be able to make pillows...

I like sewing. I find it very relaxing. I prefer to sew by hand, I get too frustrated when using a sewing machine.

Ever buy Marjen clothing, handbags, or jewelry? No, of course not . They aren't in stores yet. Soon to be on ebay yet though.

Me and my friend sew for it. I'm the Jen in Marjen.

Well...

*blinks*

My sewing reminds me of a cow trying to do calligraphy.
It's not so good.

*sighs*
It really bothers me too, I just get so frustrated when I do it... I can do tiny little marks on paper? But sewing? Apparently thats a bit too much for my poor brain. Feh.

I used to cross stitch... but I personally don't have the patience for it.

[DM was on fire!]

I attemped cross stitching, I didn't do too good though. XD

I'm not good at it, but in art class last year we made puppets and I did Number Six. I forgot to make the pants big enough though, so his torso is big and the legs are really skinny. It's sort of funny looking.

I can sew, sort of n_n;;. I used to be ok but now my skills have diminished somewhat.

I have always wanted to learn how to sew so I could make clothes, because nothing in stores suits my likes. I can shop for hours and find one shirt I like. I used to do those patterns where the pattern is on the fabric and you just sew it.. don't know what its called.
But I didn't take a course for it in highschool, so now I have no idea how I'm supposed to learn to do it... Experience I suppose. Maybe I'll start making barbie clothes or something.
