Leaving my sewing machine I flew into Italy. A few months after arrival I purchased a machine. It sure is better then hand-stitching everything. Unfortunately it was reasonable priced beginners machine.
I have been using it for about two years now. A few days ago I stumbled upon this website. And what do you know they are having a contest in which the winner will receive a new Singer sewing machine!!
With this in mind I took a stroll in the mercato early Saturday morning. I purchased two silk scarves, one is green with a white floral print, the other is more of a medium green with a wonderful texture of pleating! Both are nice because they have that sheer wispy feel!
My only thought is to construct a swimsuit cover which can be worn during a brunch, then removed to enjoy the beach. After some research, which I have included some of my favorite summer 2009 designs.
I began cutting and draping. My goal is to win that new machine!
Wish me luck! Off I go!
