School

I'm pretty excited for this semester. The first day I just sat in on the classes and they pass you the syllabus and they give you all of these due dates. This was a little overwhelming because a lot won't be homework but it will be projects and quizzes. Yikes! But you just take it one day at a time. You stay on top of things. You turns the nerves into excitement to get things done.
In my sewing class the other day. I anticipated it would be a pretty fun class, I enjoy sewing quite a bit. I know how to sew my basics. I'm pretty confident about it ya know. But then as she went around the room and had people talk about their past experience, I felt as though I wouldn't be able to sew a small button. These others were saying they have made wedding quilts and someone made all of their own dresses for their high school dances. Definitely humbled. I have a lot to learn. So I'm excited to learn new things and realizing this is a really neat opportunity to learn from others. So here I am also multitasking, thinking about the sewing projects I get to decide to work on. I'd really like to make a dress and so I have some ideas for it. Thank goodness for tutorials!
