90° turn

I´m getting hooked on sewing again. What sparked the interest was the book Bend-the-Rules Sewing. By Amy Karol, the woman behind the Angry Chicken blog.

The flickr group of the finished items from the book helped.

I came across some really cool fabric shops, like:

• Superbuzzy
  
• Cia's Palette
  
• Reprodepot Fabrics
  
• Purl Soho Fabrics
  
• Dharma Trading Linen, silk, cotton, hemp. Good basic fabric - meant for dyeing.
  
• Sublime StitchingDoes carry items to embroider, but not a fabric store. Check out the cool embroidery patterns.
  

Too bad I don´t have a sewing machine :( I did put a posting on Freecycle for Athens about a Sewing Machine and one person answered. She will be moving to Athens shortly and I can check out a sewing machine she has. She got it at a yard sale for the casing and she hasn´t tried it yet. If it works I've got myself a free sewing machine.

I hope to be able to do some bags, clothing (mostly for the girls), home decor (pillows). I´ll keep you posted.
