"Sewist" is a lot better than "sewer." Every word got a start somewhere and I intend to help "sewist" grow feet and then wing its way into Webster's. froggyintexas

I refuse to be called a quilter or a sewist. I sew everything, not just quilts and frankly, quilts are the least fun to sew but they are the best received gifts. The term "sewist" isn't even recognized in dictionaries and just drives me nuts.

So, I am pretty much a seamstress. I can and do sew most anything from upholstery to wedding gowns.

How about you?
