About Laanie (go back »)

    So you can call me Laanie. It works just as well as about anything else. I have never had any sewing lessons, nor do I intend to. I started sewing by making doll clothes (which are extremely harder than human clothes because of their size) with left over scraps that my mom had. My mom doesn't really sew. She made me a couple pairs of pajama pants when I was six or seven, but then she quit. I inherited her sewing machine, but basically it was fifteen years old and it conks out every once in a while. So, I was very very very excited when my parents decided to give me my early birthday and Christmas gift about two weeks ago! This is what my new Singer looks like:

    I have other interests besides sewing, though. I play tennis for my high school, and during summer I spend about five hours a day out on the courts. As soon as that gets over I start training for pole vaulting. I train a lot for both sports. I also am a very good student, and I work hard to keep up my grades in advanced classes. Yes, I love to read and to write. Talking on the phone is my second proffesion :) When I go to college I will be going to be a D.V.M. ( a Doctor in Veterinarian Medicine) I also want to be a French Translator. I'm excited about my future and hope that sewing plays some part in it.
