When I heard about some morning sewing classes in my children’s school, I wasn’t too keen. I couldn’t sew if my life depended on it. But I wanted to be involved as much as possible in the school. I also thought it was a great way to meet and talk with some of the other parents. So each Monday morning for two hours for about 8 weeks overall, I went to my sewing classes. I am still no expert but I’m proud to say I now have some clue what I’m doing 🙂 I even sewed the hem of a pair of Jeans the other day 🙂 Parents that took part in the class made lots of different things. Pin cushions, wall hangings, and and teddies to name a few. During our classes I made these 2 bears. they’re stuffed “teddies”. I made them in Christmas colours so they are now Christmas polar bears 🙂 I gave one to my mum as a little gift. She was delighted and very impressed with me. I wasn’t excited when I heard the idea of the class. I went along more as a rep from the P.T.A. But I am so glad that I did, because I made some new friends and gained a new “talent” to build on in the future. So Moral of the story is, never be afraid to try something new 🙂 you never know what you could learn.
