I've bought a sewing machine, over a year ago, and have yet to thread it. When I was in elementary school I got a kids sewing machine for Christmas that I would use all the time. We had a friend who did alterations in a major dept store in our city, and she would give me her scraps. I would make all my Barbi clothes. They had mink coats, velvet capes, etc. I had forgotten all about this until you asked. LOL!
I need to get that machine threaded and quit doing all my mending and scrapbook sewing by hand! Maybe this group will give me the motivation to get to work.

Is Potato Leek Soup Crafty?
I hope so, because I was feeling pretty creative! With summer well on its way, I’m getting into the fresh food groove and inspired to try some quick, simple recipes.
