Christine"s Home Affairs

As my daily business is mostly related to sewing and second hand dealing, I"ll be sharing with you my latest projects and ideas for sewing to sell. You"ll learn to repair and alter clothes, construct new garments, and even upcycle some treasures from the Op Shops. As part of my second hand dealing, I"ve been enjoying ways to repurpose things long forgotten and unwanted, so you"ll get to see what I"m doing with these previously unloved items. I love to get feedback, and am happy to try new things,
