My first sewing experience~ LOL!!

Do you love to craft? To feel materials, substances with your finger tips and take them into an amazing creation? Do you have the soul of an artist screaming to get out?
When I was young I remember how much I loved to draw, to curl paper, to draw scrolls. At the age of eight or nine I began my first sewing project......oh how I worked on that shirt.

It was a simple, no brainer shirt that had to be only sewed on the sides and the shoulders down to the end of the arms. Just two pieces of fabric. It took me FOREVER to make this shirt. The sewing machine bobbin kept jamming over and over. I had to learn to use seam ripper!
After several weeks the final product was completed. A white lightweight knit, long sleeve shirt. The problem was....one sleeve was a 3/4th sleeve and the other was six inches past my hand! LOL!
I was so stubborn and just sick sick sick of using that darn seam ripper........I could not stand it any more!
So I proudly worn that shirt to a special event. I could care less that one are was pushed up extra bulky and the other is not.
Somewhere, deep in a hidden box..lays a picture of me in that shirt. My older sister had kept it as what we call a bribe pix! That shirt went into my closet until I could not stand to look at it anymore. It went into the trash..but the memories of it still makes me laugh until this day~
