New hobby after beading

After a while with beading I started to fall in love with Sewing works. With a support from one of my colleague, I'm starting my sewing program by end of Nov 2010.. It was pretty hard as well as I didn't have any basic same as beading but I keep in my mind that if I'm able to do beading, I can do sewing as well.. So, here's my first sewing product.. A kitchen mat :D
