I have a strong desire to be a crafty person so I decided to sew a "ribbon blanket" for my neighbor's new baby. I should have paid more attention to my mom's instructions on how to use my sewing machine but I think, ultimately, I had to learn through trial and error. This particular blanket will not be my gift to my neighbor because I know how shoddy the inside stitching is. I will make her a new one and actually be proud!

I have a sewing book and a "softies" book that I want to make a few things out of. I'll post pictures when I finish another project.
