Gee all these bring back old memories. For me I was in 4th grade, age 10. Our babysitter was also the 4-H sewing instructor. I made a tea towel and an apron. The babysitter made me tear out stitches until I was sick and tired of the towel and her. But I sewed all through high school and made a 3-piece wool suit my senior year. Got Grand Champion on it for sewing and in the style review too. Got to go to the State Fair and model the suit there. My mom went as my sponsor and she let me eat a hamburger for breakfast while at the fair. Well I needed 5 hours of college credit the next year so I took Clothing Construction and made another suit easily. Also go 5 hours of A. Seems like clothing construction was alot easier then than quilting now. But I prefer the quilting.
