Yes! But I'm very scared to do this. Just now something happens to it (Murphy loves hanging out at my house) and then I have to end up replacing it or something. I'd much rather buy something second-hand and resell it if it doesn't work out.
I don't borrow books from people and I don't lend out my stuff either. Only to Elton. Because he is as finicky as I am when it comes

And I would love to see what you make.

MandyE, my issues are I like my books to look new (or as new as I bought them) and some people wreck the books. Honestly, if my things come back and look ugly, I want to say, "oh just keep it" because I hate ugly books that were PRETTY :)

See, issues!

Ooh...what are your issues with books? I'm a nut about mine...I can read the same book 5 times and never crack the spine. Is that you, too???

And good for you on the sewing machine! What a great way to see if you will really make use of it.

Me? I would love to be able to sew simple stuff...but I don't have the room...AND I know it would take commitment for me to
