Hello, :wave:

I'm a newbie in all senses of the word, New to gardening and growing my own, new to owning a house and new on here.

I have always been handy with a sewing machine, though I prefer hand sewing and regularly make my own clothes and other fabric items, now I am growing and eating my own, with mixed success so far...... :flower:

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Welcome to ISH :flower:

There's nothing more satifying than looking at a washing line of your own hand made garments drying in the breeze over your veg plot.

Hello Caromarrow, welcome. I'm new-ish to growing your own etc., and it all seems daunting but there's plenty of advice on here. Great that you make your own clothing.......I'm hopeless at it so tend to buy charity shop stuff and am happy with that. Just wish we had our own place........long story.......one day!
