09Ok, perhaps I am exaggerating a little but I do feel to a certain extend that other than the day I got married and had Arianna, getting myself a sewing machine is definitely on my list of the best things that has ever happened to me. 
To be absolutely honest, I never saw myself sewing anything let alone actually owning a machine. Despite having a yoyo interest in handicraft due to my extremely short interest span and mind you, I’ve tried my hand at just about everything from knitting to crocheting to patchwork and crosstitch, but I never really found something that I really liked. So I am very pleased that I finally found something that I can foresee myself doing even in my old age.
It took me a very long time to reach this stage and the only reason why I seem to have the drive and perseverence to stick this one out is because I realised that sewing is the one thing that, to me, gives me the end product fastest. With such a short attention/interest span, I really need something that keeps me wanting to complete it so I can see what it looks like in the end. Then I move on to more….and on top of that, I do have to thank my mum who is an absolute superwomen when it comes to sewing. Hence it is an added bonus for me for when she comes out here to help me with Pacman because I am so going to strip off as much information and knowledge as I can from her! It is certainly a time I am really looking forward too.
Although I know I still have a long way to go before I am anywhere near as good as my mum, I believe that I will improve Stitch by Stitch.
