You have more than inspired me to sew something! These buttons just add to my enthusiasm! I have two sewing machines, one really big old thing that was my mums which she gave me at my request about two years ago (my other machine was jammed). I had this urge to make beautiful tea towels ... does it need to be said that I never even took the cover off her machine..... At school I did particularly well in sewing, the teacher loved me, I have a knack for sewing really fast and straight. That's not much good when it comes to arm holes though is it? I remember vividly shopping with my mum for a pattern I had to take to school for what would be my 'BIG PROJECT'. I was so excited, I picked out an Esprit pattern for a very cool vest. It worked out wonderfully and I think I got an A! I then requested a sewing machine for my 14th birthday, I have only ever used it to hem up many pairs of pants, an expected task with any pants/jeans purchase when measuring not much over 5 feet tall. I will drag the old machines out soon, I can feel the rumblings...those buttons you got hold of, I must have some and I must have something to sew them to, I'll keep you posted:) Well Annabel, guess what?
