Dressmaking

I signed up for a dressmaking course and started attending lessons sometime in May 2011.  My intention was to be able to make some nice little and special dresses for my girl.  As I go along, I got more ambitious and hope to be able to quilt one day.  I'd be posting updates on my progress on this course and hope anyone following this could give me some advice & comments as I go along!  Many thanks in advance!
