My name is Rachel and I am a 30 something primary school teacher who is inspired by all things crafty. This year I finally took the plunge and learn't how to sew and have developed a healthy love affair with fabric, cotton and all stores dealing with the like. I have basic equipment - sewing machine (2nd hand) and overlocker that likes to unthread it self (also 2nd hand) and various tools of the trade.
Your probably wondering what this is all about and why somebody would want to participate in anything for ten thousand hours well this is my challenge to see whether or not it takes ten thousand hours to become a genius at something and in this case its sewing.
My brother recently awakened me to a piece of research taken out which found that it takes a person 10,000 hours of practice to become an ace in a certain discipline. Apparently if you practice your said hobby, instrument, sport etc for ten thousand hours you will become a genius at it.
I am not how long it will take me to undertake this challenge but my aim is to do at least an hour a day and update you on my progress as I go. So here we go!!!
