When I was a teenager, I went to night-school and learnt how to sew. I did this because I was failing high school; and didn't want to look like I was flunking out of everything. Now, back then, we had to obtain the permission of the school I attended for me to go to night college/class to do this. Nowadays, our teenagers can go and just get their parent's permission because it'll add to their overall score.
Well, last week, I celebrated my 38th birthday; and Mum and Dad thought it was about time I owned my first sewing machine. Now, I used to sew and could follow patterns easily a long time ago; but now, it's a matter of re-learning how to make a template, measuring the fabric twice, cutting once, then pinning and hoping I get it all correct.
Today, I made my own custom-made Book Baggy. It's a smaller version of a pillow case and it looks good. here's the photos of the first one for my journal so I can leave it out and yet nobody will know what it is.
