Sew what?

I don’t know what has come over me.  I suddenly want to start sewing again.  Not pillowcases but clothes.  To wear in public.  When did I suddenly become Ms. Homemaker??  I already blogged once about wanting to garden and since then have had many more thoughts on sustainable living (including collecting rain water for re-use, especially in the garden once I begin).  And now I’m thinking about picking up a long-lost interest in sewing??  And admitting it publically??  (Haha, now THAT is progress!)

This time I think I know exactly where the motivation came from.  I read a friend’s blog on combining shirts to make a dress and became very excited about salvaging some tops in my closet.  I trust a sewing machine more than my hands for a project like this but haven’t owned a machine in several years.  I know there are some very affordable machines out there so I started to browse.  The more I looked, the more excited I got about the clothes I could be making and other projects I might enjoy doing.  I promise not to subject my son to home-made clothes unless he actually asks.  Which is unlikely.

Wow, so many projects already in mind.  Somebody stop me!  (No, don’t really.)
