Sewing

I have a sudden urge to sew but I can't sew for nuts. I used to do extremely badly in home economics because I can't sew. Even the teacher gave up teaching me how to operate the sewing machine. This is despite the fact that I used to grow up in a place filled with industrial sewing machines.

Sighs.

I wanna start on several DIY sewing projects, like cute bunny finger puppets and especially the one on dog leash.

Can someone teach me how to sew?
