Sew What!!

Sew I don't know how to sew, sew what! I'm determined to learn. The plan is to find a reasonable sewing machine for a reasonable price and sit my butt down this summer and learn to sew! I've been dreaming of learning to sew and making my own creations for some time now. Sew, I've decided sew long sweet dreams, hello sweet reality! I'm gonna do it. I'll start small, of course. But my plan is to be proficient enough at sewing to be able to create a t-shirt blanket for Jacob this summer. I also have dreams of creating things beautiful enough to start my own Etsy shop. I have ideas, but need some inspiration and direction.

Any tips?

What did you all start off sewing?

Any certain brand of sewing machine that is a better bang for the buck than the others?

Sew many questions. I really can't wait to begin. My roommate should move out the end of May/beginning of June, and I have plans of transforming her room into my studio.

Send me patterns to get me started, links to cheap fabric sites, tips on learning to sew, ANYTHING. Fuel my sewing desires!!

Well, I should get back to work. Thanks for stopping by, see you soon.
