For me the reverse is true. I always sewed, mainly clothing for my children and crafty things, but my daughter started a course in soft home furnishing and had to make a quilted cushion. I liked what I saw and have now become addicted, but unfortunately she gave it up! None of my grandchildren seems to have the inclination, but I live in hope that the youngest who was born on my birthday just over a year ago will inherit my love of sewing and quiltmaking, so I can leave her all my paraphernalia, (you know what I mean). My son is creative so there is hope. By the way, I was hopeless in the school needlework class, I hated being told what to make and it showed.
