My very first sewing machine.
I must have been given when I was 7 or 8 for Xmas and I loved it and sewed many a dolls outfit on it. Now I am on to grown up outfits I now work out of my studio from home full time making and creating. Exciting though scary. I have been sampling fabric and designs for the last two weeks so keep your eyes on this space for my creations. This weekend I am doing a major clean up as it is driving me crazy as I can't find a thing. On this major clean up below are just a few of the things I have come across in my sorting and discarding.
A Pair of Very Old Chinese Slippers
I remember these from when I was a little girl sitting on the bookcase. Unfortunately they are very fragile now and starting to perish. It's amazing the things that have been done to the female body over the centuries by all cultures in the name of beauty? Or is it to keep us powerless?
