Well today it BEGINS!!! Yes, I concede, small steps, but armed with my brand new Brother NS-20 (Project Runway edition for extra motivation) Sewing Machine that my Mum gave me for Christmas I'm off to my very first sewing lesson! I figured I could sit at home reading the manual whicb got me as far as getting thread on the bobbin or I could get a certified professional to guide me on my way to fashion genius and inevitable glory!
So Nadine, a tailor of 20 years in Newtown, will be my first of I hope many guides on my Fashion Journey. On the phone she assured me that by lesson number two I would no longer be a beginner and left me feeling like in a matter of weeks I would be mastering tasks well beyond straight lines and seams! Maybe not, but it's the thought that counts.
On the 8th of February I start college and my first subject is Fashion Buying. I'm pretty sure buying is not my problem and I'm positive I'd flunk Fashion Restraint. Buy 8th Feb my goals are to know how to at least take up all those trousers I own that I keep saying I'll get altered (the curse of being 5"1') and maybe even following some simple patterns.
Oh and did I mention I need to find a job??? More on thet next time!!!
