When I learned how to sew, it was by hand, and my mom didn't want me to use her machine, but she objected to "toy" machines, too. So I have wondered just where to start! :) ~NicoleLiteracy-chichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08925734773412633965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-37591873790328048882014-05-13T02:46:51.080-05:002014-05-13T02:46:51.080-05:00Thanks so much for the prompt reply !

But I was there to watch the whole time AND it wasn't a regular thing i.e. we did a sewing session once every half a year or so.

I've been planning some sort of sewing time with her but I hadn't figured out yet what we should make.
