I’ve been dreaming again. Not the kind that you have at night (although I certainly have my fair share of those, too!) but the kind of dreams that make you think about all the exciting and wonderful things you could do.
This is nothing new to me, being somewhat of a “dreamer” by nature. I would need several lifetimes to act on all the ideas for projects that run through my head on a daily basis. Many of them come in and out and I never think of them again.
But sometimes I have an idea that seems to stick in my head long enough to start looking less like a dream, and more like a possibility.
After attending several online classes recently, I have been inspired to think about setting up an online sewing class. I love sewing and I love sharing all that I have learned with others (I’m a teacher, after all!).
And with somewhat serendipitous timing, Crissy Heron, at Indie BizChicks.com, is offering a chance to win a spot in her course on how to teach an online class. (Her site is full of great information on running a business! If that’s your thing, be sure to check it out!)
So…I’m putting this idea out there, and we’ll see what happens!
What kind of crazy/awesome/exciting ideas are you pondering today?
Do it!!! Sounds like a blast:)
I say go for it!
I love the idea!
I can’t wait to see more 
I love to sew, but I am very new to sewing machine sewing and have always done everything by hand. I need tips… I have already broken 3 needles on my sewing machine since Christmas! I have only made 3 things… pillow covers, a ball (from the sew fun pattern you can actually see on the link on your page), and a few quilt squares when I was testing out the new machine… I still prefer by hand but I think it would save me so much time and the finished products may look even cleaner/neater… I don’t have the best stitching by hand.
You are right, it is a LOT faster to show by machine, which means that you can sew more!
And it does make it a lot neater (well, for me anyway, I don’t have the neatest hand stitching either.) As for breaking needles, the culprits usually are a dull needle, or the wrong size of needle for the fabric you are using. I refer to the chart that came with my sewing machine quite a bit, there is one like it here: http://www.craftandfabriclinks.com/sewingbook/needle.html
