Yup. A sewing machine. One of those thingys with thread and needles and alot of different stitches.
I had no clue what I was doing.
That was June.
Here we are in August and I have been creating some mini-masterpieces for friends gifts. I can't put pictures on here, nor tell you what they are (duh! They are for gifts. I'll show you after I give them away!). Let's just say that I am pretty damn good at sewing.
So when I got fed up with not being able to find a remote control because they were scattered all over the house, I had a brainstorm. Why don't I make a remote control holder??
I searched online for patterns and then realized that I don't know how to read a pattern. Hmmmm. . . I was on my own for this one.
This is what I came up with:
How does that work? Let me show you. . . .
It's only my first draft. . . and it looks pretty crappy up close. But for my first time without a pattern and first time using elastic, I don't think it's so bad.
Besides, it was fun. Alot of fun. This is only the second time I've created something without a pattern. The first time was my son.
