Not many kids sew these days, so I would think the quota of men is even less. Although, it may be the opposite now and more men are sewing. I'm 53, and my sisters & brother would all sew. We made bean bag toys, doll clothes, stuffed toys, and had a lot of fun. My mom taught my niece & nephew to sew. I'm glad so many men are sewing and quilting, because there was sort of a stigma that "it's a girl thing" when I was growing up. That "kid" is probably so proud of what he did and his mom sure is! Let him bask in the limelight, but Oh, the foolishness of youth....
