Why not keep a special journal about all the wild and wonderful things you're gonna get into this year?

You are gonna love sewing!
Do yourself a favor--before you buy a sewing pattern be sure to take a few minutes and look at the instructions included in the pattern. If you don't understand them in the store, you won't understand them at home either. It goes without saying that not all sewing patterns come with clear, easy to understand instructions either.

I'm really looking forward to the sewing, actually. This is just the basic course (we're making a pillowcase), but there's also a section on pattern-reading. After this one, I'm hoping to sign up for the 202, where we make a ladies top. I have some really beautiful fabrics that mom brought back from India and Malaysia, and I'm hoping to eventually be able to do something nice with them.

As far as journal keeping goes, I always hope to do this, but never succeed. I think it's because I already keep up an internal monologue, so by the time I'd get stuff on paper (or electronic), I've already heard it all before and I bore myself. And I figure if I'm bored, others would be too.

I'm sure I've bored stones into gravel many times myself, particularly when I discussed that curved flowerbed of mine. You're entitled!

Never! We gardeners are never bored by stories of your flowerbed. Mere mortals, perhaps, but who cares about them? ;)

(Giggle!) Goodness knows I made every mistake it was possible to make with that flowerbed. I'm sure it kept the more knowledgeable types amongst us in stitches.
