I'm considering buying a cheap sewing machine to get me started. I would love to sew my own curtains and pillows. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171503 Mon, 28 May 2012 22:42:37 +0000 Mrs. Pen 171503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got it from my grandma when I was 12 and it's still going strong. I use it all the time!<br /> I also have hand-sewing kit, lots of needles and thread. I am DIYing almost the entire nursery for my LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171496 Mon, 28 May 2012 22:25:32 +0000 Shimmer 171496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a sewing machine but I haven't used it in over 2 years! Maybe these little ones will motivate me to make something... anything! The DIY projects getting posted have made me think about doing something though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171345 Mon, 28 May 2012 20:37:50 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 171345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a sewing machine and all the tools (was my sisters) but I've never used it. I know how (extremely basic) but i've never sat down to actually make something, (not even curtains) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171344 Mon, 28 May 2012 20:30:15 +0000 mrs. bird 171344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have needles, thread, buttons, pins, measuring tape, etc but no sewing machine. I go to my Mom's house, she lives pretty close by, and use hers if I need to. I took sewing lessons when I was younger (loved making matching outfits for me &amp; my American girl dolls!), so I'm not bad at it. I'd like to get one before we have a LO so I can make Halloween costumes &amp; stuff for the nursery </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171297 Mon, 28 May 2012 19:43:29 +0000 heffalump 171297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I don't sew. If I need something sewed I have my mom do it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171251 Mon, 28 May 2012 18:31:09 +0000 PrincessBaby 171251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish. I can't even sew buttons back on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171246 Mon, 28 May 2012 18:24:09 +0000 Minnie_Girl 171246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, both my husband and I have used our sewing machine quite a bit in the last two years! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171240 Mon, 28 May 2012 18:00:00 +0000 twodoghouse 171240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Strangely, I have four sewing machines in the house (two old ones from my grandma, one really super old one from my husband's great grandma and a modern, cheap one) but I don't know how to sew. I guess I did make a gym bag once in junior high, so there's that.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171186 Mon, 28 May 2012 16:40:15 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 171186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My parents bought me one a few years ago, so that I would return the one I stole from my mother. Last year they got me a refurbished serger for the same reason :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171168 Mon, 28 May 2012 15:53:10 +0000 loveisstrange 171168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I own both. I haven't had a chance to make anything recently, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171165 Mon, 28 May 2012 15:48:26 +0000 Sweet T 171165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a sewing machine and the supplies but I haven't used it since LO was born. I just never have the time. *sigh* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171137 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:48:35 +0000 kentuckygirl 171137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a sewing machine but would like one. I do have enough sewing supplies to repair hems, buttons, holes, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171126 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:37:59 +0000 lavender 171126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My grandparents owned their own tailoring(?) shop when I was little so I learned pretty young and on an industrial sewing machine. I'd love to get one now and to get back into it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171058 Mon, 28 May 2012 13:17:54 +0000 immabeetoo 171058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep and just ordered a serger! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171018 Mon, 28 May 2012 12:24:11 +0000 Rubies 171018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep - I took an introductory sewing course a couple of years ago and then bought a sewing machine. I can only do basic things, though. Nothing fancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-171008 Mon, 28 May 2012 12:14:26 +0000 stiffaknee 171008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a sewing machine and an embroidery machine. Baby Girl has her name on everything!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170993 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:47:33 +0000 Boogs 170993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have sewing supplies. My MIL got a new sewing machine and promised me her old one, so I'm waiting on getting that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170990 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:46:32 +0000 MamaG 170990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love a sewing machine. I sewed basic things growing up and I think I could make some really cute things for LO. I would love to make her some blankets/quilts as she grows up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170989 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:44:39 +0000 Mrs. Blue 170989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! I sewed more when I was growing up, but I just got a new machine for Christmas. I'm really excited about making some home decor items (curtains, pillows, etc.) and someday, some baby items! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170964 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:19:01 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 170964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I don't know how to sew at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170953 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:00:28 +0000 mediagirl 170953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I learned how to use it a few months ago and made two things - a dress for our LO and a banner for the nursery. OMG I love the banner so much. It was so easy, though...you could totally make it with iron-on tape. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170952 Mon, 28 May 2012 10:59:46 +0000 BoogieBea 170952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a sewing machine but have not done a lot with it. I made a pair of pants for LO. I also made LOs Halloween costume one year - that I was very proud of considering I have basically no experience. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170944 Mon, 28 May 2012 10:46:59 +0000 chopsuey 170944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a few needles and lots of colored thread. No sewing machine though. I would invest in one if I were a DIY queen, but alas I am not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170943 Mon, 28 May 2012 10:45:51 +0000 oliviaoblivia 170943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do. I hope someday to have a sewing room, it's such a pain to pull out my machine for little projects. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-sewing-supplies-or-a-sewing-machine#post-170937 Mon, 28 May 2012 10:40:06 +0000 mrbee 170937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I noticed some of the recent DIY projects we've featured have involved sewing or a sewing machine... so I got to wondering if you all have sewing tools.</p> <p>Do you own sewing supplies or a sewing machine? </p>
