Yup a green blooded 4-Her here! I come from a sewing family, too. GGF was a tailor and my GR apprenticed as one in Sweden, but he loved the outdoors and couldn't stand to be in. My favorite childhood memory of him is his white head of hair bent over his treadle sewing machine. Mom, aunt and sisters all learned to sew. One sister does lots of clothes sewing for grands, one sews only out of necessity, one manages a calico dept of a large retail fabric shop, and I do most of the quiltmaking.
