My mom always made my clothes, all of my little dresses were quite unique, Grandma also croched as well as my mom and knitted, they did cross stitch and embroidery and i learned from them and make beadworking, jewelry for my family on special occasions. My mom and grandmother were very talented women, in many crafts including pencil drawing. I inherited all of these and have used them in my life. I am very grateful that they passed their gifts on to me. smilles:)
