I have only 1 sibling a brother I guess he does crafty things he is a retired welder, he can and did make anything he wanted to.He is really artistic and can draw anything, photographic memory when it comes to things he sees and wants to make later.
I sew, my mother, her sister, grandmother & ggrandmother on my mother's side sew as did a 1st cousin and her daughter, who does beautiful cross stitching.
My daughter doesn't sew at all, nor my son, but they both know that mom will always hem or repair things for them. I too hate alterations, and I hate to do (sewing) hand work, so I only machine quilt. I guess I inherited the crafty gene. I only wish my daughter had and would even try.
She has a new sewing machine my MIL left her when she passed away, but I know she will probably never use it. Oh well.
