Isn't it odd how some of us are drawn to sewing and others could care less. Thinking about it, I guess it is that way with most everything in life.I can renmember when I couldn't afford to buy new fabric, so I would take used clothing and take it apart. I would wash it, press it and I had my material for sewing.I do remember also years ago I could go to a discount fabric shop and buy bolt ends of fabric for 25 cent to 50 cent. It was large enough to make adult clothing, Mom and I would make clothing for a dress shop. I sure miss Mom and those many sewing days we shared.
