I started sewing when I was about 10 years old on my mothers treadle Singer sewing machine. Mom taught me all she knew and it wasnt long before I started making my own clothes.

When I look back I cringe to think that I wore them to school.

I would love to learn some couture techniques

craft interests: quilting, sewing, tole painting - carving

Re: How to Make a Knotted Belt

This is a beautiful belt that would be perfect for dress pants of jeans.

I would like to know how to determine the length of the cords too. Also, how do we get an answer to our questions?

Love your work Ken!

Re: Cell Phone Purse

These are great little purses. I would love to make them for both of my granddaughters, what a hit they would be at their schools!

Re: Village Frock

She is really beautiful......and so is the dress. I love the colour and the details, even to the hair elastics.



Re: Yellow Linen Dress

I love the colours you chose and the border makes the dress!
Beautiful.

Re: Red/Black Linen Sheath Dress

What a superb job you have done! Your fabric would be a very difficult one to work with due to all the lines that have to match up perfectly........which you have done.
Absolutely beautiful!

Re: Vintage Tablecloth Jackets

What a wonderful idea! I am certainly going to try it.
