I love to bend the rules! I hope the book has shortcuts! I am an amateur seamstress at best and can use all the help I can get when it comes to sewing. I tried making some bags recently and really need to practice more I think! sierramuse8 at aol dot com.
I had checked this book out of the library earlier. I would love to own it! :)
I don't even know how to sew on a button. The book will not help me. I think I just need you to come spend some time at my house. Linking to Facebook now! xoxo
