Learning to sew

Not so much as learning but teaching myself. I've fixed my sons glasses strap, and altered my running arm band for my iPhone- today's task was to make a sweatshirt a bit smaller in the waist and arms. I did a good job! I turned it side out, the pinned the shape I wanted to sew. Sewed along the lines and cut off th excess material.

Here's the before-



And here's the after



It's still baggy, however it's taken in a bit so I don't look lik om drowning in my shirt! Lol. Not bad for a newbie! Mick is asking that I make her clothes. We'll give that a try after some more improved alterations.
