Hello from lancashire England
hello,
just stopping by to introduce myself
I live in Lancashire by the sea in the UK
my hubby gave me a lovely red Necchi 200 for Christmas
as I had said I wanted to get into quilting and applique
I made a couple of little chook shed primitive applique projects
about 13 years ago and want to make some more
plus I have a beautiful granddaughter now who is nearly 3 years old
I want to make a quilt and things for her
maybe I will get quite good and even make dresses
I dont think I would be able to use a machine if there wasnt such things
as automatic needle threaders!
but I am willing to give it a try
even though my eyes are not as good now

Hi Tessynutty, you'll love it here. Great community feeling; always people willing to help.
There are simple dress patterns out there or just trace around a current basic dress, the fit on small children is very forgiving. Make small projects for her too; drawstring bags, book covers, dolls quilts, bunting, and she'll soon want to sew with you. My seven year old grandson comes for fortnightly lessons now and loves it.
