Sewed a skirt


Some lovely crisp, quietly green linen, from the last consignment of fabric from the late, much lamented, Croft Mill.


Finally got to do something I have been wanting to do for ages - overedged the bottom, turned a tiny hem and anchored it with a decorative stitch. That's why I spent all that money on the new machine, last year.


I also used the quarter inch foot to do the seams, and then overedged. This meant I didn't have to trim the edges - I am not so good at cutting straight lines. Didn't it turn out neat? I am very pleased with the result.
