Well, I never!
It looks like I have found a (winter) sewing mate here in Copenhagen. A new Scouting friend of mine also sews, is new to quilting, and we are going to do some sewing together during the winter (gotta do a lot of Scouting while the weather is good - leaving less time for sewing).
How cool is that!
Also, today I had a 9 yo for sewing classes. We did a little bit of sewing on paper (follow the line, get used to the foot pedal etc), then she picked a couple of batiks out of my stash and (we) made a 2-tier skirt. We did have to go to the shop: we spent all of 50 cents on elastic for the waistband. The sewing day was a gift for her first communion, and she not only did sewing, she also handled an iron for the first time in her life, pressing seams and all.
I'm tired, but this was a great way to spend the next-to-last day before I'm back in the school on Thursday.
