Introduction

Hello and greetings.  This is my first post.  I've finally completely my first successful project from a vintage pattern.  I've been teaching myself to sew in earnest for about a year and recently it started to really click.  Things seem a bit easier and I've conquered my frustration - now the challenges seem like a fun puzzle instead of an insurmountable impossibility.  For the complete story, see my new blog, Projects and Preoccupations, to journal my learning progress.

Reading this blog has been a great source of inspiration, so thanks posters!!
