I sewed almost everything for my two girls until they were at that age where they wanted the jeans- and - t-shirt wardrobe. I made prom dresses and costumes, etc. When they got to high school, they enrolled in a couple of Home Economics and did a little sewing then, but didn't keep it up. The older one began sewing after she had a child and wanted specific things for her (and to save money). The younger one made one garment and hung up her shears.

Now the older one does heirloom sewing, etc. She has awesome machines (and her daughter doesn't like the heirloom look) so the as the world turns (wink, wink). The younger daughter's child has an interest and has come with us to the Martha Pullen school in Huntsville a couple of times. She has her own machine, but it's now on hold as she is so involved in school extracurricula activites.
