Hi! I finally plucked up my courage and did my first sewing project for 2010! And my first blogging activity as well - figuring things out as I go along! (Has this thing got an "undo" button?!)
I am a novice sewer and am daunted by all that I do not know (yet!) and need to know to make something wearable and unique. I therefor started with a very basic NewLook pattern (http://images.patternreview.com/sewing/patterns/newlook/6648/6648.jpg) and found it not too bad. I have to confess that I did have to use a seam ripper as I attached the ruched waistband the wrong way - well, that's what you get for sewing late at night and doing it in a hurry! Anyway, herewith some pictures of the completed top:

I am now a bit restless and trying to figure out what to sew next. There is a big fabric stash waiting to be transformed and I do have a lot of patterns (I like to be prepared, not for me those chapters in sewing manuals advising on all the necessary tools one should have! )
Anyway, I will keep you posted!
