Have you tried with a piece of paper, no thread in the needle, sewing a spiral, lines, zig zag pattern. Draw things on paper, see if you stay on the line. (we did this for two weeks in my fashion design course, I thought it was a joke, but it helped). Then do it on calico. You'll get better each time!

I have come to the conclusion that some people have it (the patience, time, calm disposition) and other would like it! Also, there have to be people to buy things from Etsy, instead of making things. That's where I come in!Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10882203460360618212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3401199010823227072.post-30084452254049417452009-01-27T14:20:00.000+11:002009-01-27T14:20:00.000+11:00This comment has been removed by the author.Vanessa Tylmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14629886064774235934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3401199010823227072.post-70274456732655161972009-01-27T13:02:00.000+11:002009-01-27T13:02:00.000+11:00I think Polly is gorgeous - who wants perfect - th...I think Polly is gorgeous - who wants perfect - those slight imperfections make us unique!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09583940455920694670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3401199010823227072.post-52951604327539348422009-01-27T12:17:00.000+11:002009-01-27T12:17:00.000+11:00Carolyn, I think Polly is just perfect.

Anyway, sewing is something you will surely get used to... just make friends with the manual. Everything I made was very wonky for a long time till I looked at the instructions for how to use the machine. It is getting better but nothing is ever quite right!<BR/><BR/>A very nice thing for you to do for your friend.Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07929138770639425061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3401199010823227072.post-85958397906152225142009-01-27T04:08:00.000+11:002009-01-27T04:08:00.000+11:00Carolyn, that is a lovely gesture for your friend....Carolyn, that is a lovely gesture for your friend.
