Yes I sew, and knit, and crochet et cetera. Started at 6 if
you count darning my Dad's socks. First sewing when I was 11, at school. VERY basic. Sewed special clothes for myself all thru high school and college. I started changing (altering) my clothes from the very first dress. I Like to learn by doing. Sewed for my daughter from the panties and jacket of her layette that she wore home from the hospital to her bride's dress and veil (plus 4 bridesmaid's dresses). Quilting started in 1989 when I lived in Seattle and took classes at In The Beginning from Marilyn Doheny. Stopped sewing- and got totally hooked on quilting. That makes 54 years not counting the darning. No one would believe the hundreds of notions and threads I have (stash aside).My mother never used her sewing machine but I inherited lots from my m-in-law. I'm vintage.
