    Have fun with your new sewing machine. I can't do much more that sew a straight line from time to time but really enjoy it when I do!

    A heads up.... Walmart sells twin sized flat sheets in a billion colors for $4 a sheet. I have used them not only for curtains but also if I get fabric for curtains I will use the cream or white one to do the lining.
