My Summer Adventure in Sewing

This past December I bought a sewing machine.
With NO IDEA how to sew.
Now when I say no idea, I mean it.
I didn't even know how to tie a knot in thread.
Let alone sew on a button.
Good thing SSG Army Pants was taught how to sew in basic training.
So with this Summer this is what I am going to do.
I am going to learn how to sew.
With a little help from my friends.
I am going to call this 'My Summer Adventure in Sewing'
First I will show you some projects that I did last week.
I took an image off of my Silhouette and made this owl pin cushion.
I made this ruffle pillow too!  I am pretty excited that I actually did this!  But I want to do better!
My goal by the end of the summer is to make another pillow like this and see the before and after difference!
