Learning Lesson

Well,  I finished my first apron.  Let's just say on a scale of 1-10 it might earn a sympathy score of 1.  A junior girl scout could have done better.  My chin is up though; it was a learning lesson.  A few things I am going to change.  First will be to have a simpler pattern.  Second is to use a clear nylon thread.  The material I was using has a cow skin pattern, and I want to use a lot of pattern material, so I was sewing with black thread, which was okay on the black parts of the material, not so great on the white parts.  If at first you don't succeed try, try again.  Again I will try.  I knew it was not going to be easy, there is always a learning curve.  My curve is just really on the low side right now.  Oh, well, I will keep at it.
