Well, I can not seem to find my sweatshirts, but I am sure you get the idea.
If & when I find them, I will try to put them up then

Through the years I have sewn clothing for myself, husband, son and daughter when growing up. I have also made altar cloth's priest's vestments, many many sewing crafts for other people. I even made 2 fish houses for my husband and his brother. They were made out of canvas and it was horrible. I got them done, but it did ruin my New Home machine many years ago. I love to sew, but now that I am retired I still love to sew, and my mind thinks of so many projects to make, but my body just doesn't seem to get them all done. I have 2 questions. I was wondering what billfold pattern you use for your husband's wallet. My husband is handicapped and he just can't get his wallet out of his back pants pocket. God forbid he should put it in the front pockets. :o) And the other question for for the lady that made worship mantilla's for others. I am a lace maker and I wondered if you made them from lace? and what pattern do you use for this?

You name it; I've done it. From all my daughter's formals, a wedding dress, car seat covers, husband's suits, t-shirts by the gross, curtains, bed ruffles, suits for me, --anything that needed sewing. I just quilt now; can't stand to sew for me anymore.

I make purses, doll clothes, grandkid clothing, and occasionally clothes for me. I am addicted to fabric, too.

I'm one of four girls and mum made sure we all new how to sew, we each made our own Wedding Dresses. Over the years have sewn my own clothes, worked with Sheepskins making moccasins and 36" Teddies, and even made a Cossack style hat from Sheepskin. Made grow suits for my kids when they were babies, made their clothes over the years and even made a suit for my son when he went to his girlfriends formal, he had a specific colour and style in mind and the only suit I could find that matched his request cost $A800.00, and that wasn't going to happen so made one for him at a cost of $A102.00 and that included the silver chains he wanted to loop off the belt keepers.
I have made calisthenics costumes, clothes to suit 11 1/2" fashions dolls, made stuffed toys, fixed leathers for motorcycle riders, have sewn laminated marbled silk into purses. Now I make handbags and wheat bags and sell at craft markets. Got the quilting bug about a year ago and would love to give up my job as a courier driver to hone my skills in this area and to use up the incredible stash I seem to have built up in this time.

I think it is actually against the Law to mention Model T or Model A and not post a picture of said car!!!!!

I started sewing as soon as my mom would let me have a needle and began making my clothes around age eleven. Started quilting as an adult and I also make seat covers, drapes, and costumes.
My mother wouldn't help me with patterns; she told me I had to read the instructions and try three times by myself before she would step in. I think this made me super independent and now I am not afraid to try the unknown!
