Looking for a new hobby :)

So I am looking for a new hobby.. I was thinking about taking up sweing, and I was just wondering how hard it is to learn how to do it.. I have never done any sewing before...

Any info would be muchly appreciated!

Thanks in advance :)

I just bought myself a cheapish but reputable brand sewing machine and am halfway through my first pattern cutting it out etc. I find it relaxing. If all else fails I can mend the 6 foot pile of clothes :lol:

The "It's sew easy" pattern are almost foolproof if you're starting from scratch (or trying to brush up after 12 years of only sewing at school). If you go into an independant sewing shop they are usually pretty helpful and happy to answer questions too. About 6 women came in to ask sewing issues while i was there looking through the pattern book. I'm not sure if that's because I am in a small town or not but the lady was very patient and honest with what I needed. She even let me play with the scissors to test them, showed where to measure DD and didn't mind DD being curious and fiddling. I made sure I put everything back :lol:

HTH hun

Thanks heaps.
I think im going to have a look into a second hand sewing machine, and have a bit of fun.
I would love to make dresses for myself.. and maybe when I get good make maternity clothes for people :)

hmm food for thought! thank you!

You will love it! Play around with your machine, get to know the different tensions and stitches and just find some easy patterns online , there are loads if free pattern tutorials around that take you through step by step! Have fun!!!
