The start of my very special journey


Here I go… 

Like many of you out there, I spent much of my twenties trying to find myself.  I’ve been lucky as my work has allowed me to travel to and work in many different places.  Through constantly living out of my suitcase and endless dinners on my own in remote / exotic locations, I decided I needed to grow up and stop finding excuses to run away from life.  So in my thirties-  I decided to try something new : starting with staying in one place long enough for my friends to remember me J

Staying in the one place has also allowed me to re-discover the art of sewing.  About 18mths ago I decided I really wanted to learn how to make lingerie…  (to this day I still have no idea why that thought just popped into my head !! )  So with that thought in mind I signed up for some sewing classes.  After various attempts and lots of unpicking here was my very first piece of lingerie J



I can’t tell you how delighted I was to be holding something which I've made…    Not bad for someone who hasn't touch a sewing machine since yrs 7 in highschool !!!   It just shows its never to old to learn something new...  my journey in the art of sewing only just started...
