  Hey Jess, I was surprised to see you signed up to Burda Style. Your the only person I know on here. Besides Amelia, who Im not even sure has an account thingy. This is way cooler now. Im hoping sometime in the future you will post pictures of a project of yours. That would be awesome! Have a nice day!

    Yeah we’ll if we can get the sewing machine to work then I will hopefully have something up in the near future :) there’s a really cool dress that I want to make which is a variation on the “afternoon tea top” which is one of my favourites on the site. You should check it out! I went and got some material from save mart today so hopefully I will be able to make something soon :) I’m super excited!! Are you working on anything at the moment?

    Maybe you could tell me whats going wrong with your sewing and maybe I could help. Or I could ask me dad and he might be able to help, because he cost a mighty lot to get it fixed at the shop.
    I have taken a look at the afternoon tea top and its gorgeous! I havent seen the dress variation though.
    Im glad you got some fabric.
    Most of the time Im working on several projects at once. Right now Im working on a high neck, elastic hem, knee legth dress. A high waisted black and white stretchy skirt, And some thing else that I have just forgottten.

    Yus! I made a pretty apron! :) you should check it out :) I’m so in love with my apron haha. You are such a cool inspiration to me! Yay! I went and got some more material from the hospice shop today so will have to make something fun out of it. I managed to get the sewing machine working but it’s just a stodgy old one at least it does the trick though. I’m gonna make another apron now and give it to someone for christmas and gonna make sum other little things so i can get some practice in before I make the dress to wear for my brothers wedding. How exciting!!

    Yea your apron is great! Good job.
    I went to the op shop today but they didnt have any good fabric.:[
    Oh Im glad you got your machine to work. Thats really good.
    Last year I made my first apron [ I never put it on Burda Style] and I was going to make one as a gift for someone but I didnt end up doing that.
    Im going to a wedding next saturday too! Im freakin out because I dont know what I will wear. Im thinking of finding something in my sewing room that I havent finished making yet. And maybe I will work on it now. Anyway I really need to find something soon. I hope your dress turns out well. Dont leave it to the last minute, because it might be a complete diaster. I made my guest wedding dress I think I called it that, for a friends wedding. Its sortof a blue colour.
