Sewing has become one of the most pleasing ways for me to use my free time. Together with my lovely sewing machine, which had been my grandmother's, I have been teaching myself to sew. Here are some of my more successful projects.

Skirts
twirl
I enjoy making and wearing skirts: they are easy, pretty, and fun!
Tops
jacket
Shirts are more tricky, but once I get them down I can make all my clothes!

Accessories
tote bag
Accessories and toys are fun to sew, and usually don't take too long.
Household
Comforter Cover
Household things: pillows, blankets, placemats, et cetera.

Upcycled T-Shirts
T-shirt skirt
Projects from old T-shirts — they are one of my biggest fabric sources.
Legs & Feet
boots
I have sewn some things for legs and feet, like pants and rain boots.
