Welcome to Boz Baby. My name is Lauren. I am a stay at home mom of four awesome kids and wife of a wonderful husband. When I was young my Granner taught me how to sew in her converted garage on her old sewing machine. My grandpa (Boz) made her a wooden cover for her pool table, and we used that as our giant cutting and sewing table (I still prefer to stand up when I sew all these years later). She had a desk with her machine on it too where she would sit, but I usually stood at the pool table with my mom's machine to practice. We made a blanket and a pillow case together with my cousin Debbie (which I still have and use occasionally). I have loved sewing ever since.
As a teenager and in college I usually stuck to pajama pants and halloween costumes- you know, stuff that doesn't have to be perfect. I would occasionally make a skirt or two. When I got married, I made skirts for my sisters and our nieces to wear; nothing too fancy though. Over the years I have tried to expand my abilities and have come out of my comfort zone a bit. After I had kids, I started sewing more for them and for friends that were having kids, and I LOVE IT!! It is so fun to see tiny people playing and having fun in the clothes you made them, or playing with the toys you made.
I am not a perfectionist by any means, but I keep trying. Hopefully I can share what I've learned, and what I am still learning along the way.
I am going to try putting some tutorials on here for some things I have made, but that is still a work in progress. Thanks for visiting and have fun browsing.
Thanks for your support,
Lauren
